Split

SPLIT    (THE CONVERSTIONS WITHIN).

Damn! The voices are back again!
Urging me to do this and not that.
What a constant struggle on the battlefield of the mind 
An arena where even the mighty are slain.

Joe do it this way.
No Joseph the other way is better.
Do u know what Joe, just don’t do anything.
In fact Joseph,kill those thoughts. 
Damn! What do i do?

Thoughts, ideas, emotions,dreams,suggestions justling for space.
Go right and you are on a lonely road.
Go left and you  are in a crowded space where you can easily lose yourself. 
As the crossroad looms large in the horizon,
Will my thoughts be slain or crowned king?

Damn! Joseph Just go for it.

Joseph D. Chukwuma Ahumibe.
