Loathe
me long,
shred my soul,
burn my heart in
hate.

I’ll
dote you 
till I’m gone.
In void feel my 
love.

freedom,
    so easily crushed
in

of life....

a collage of conflicting memories

People walk at random
                        Life follows its course.
                        A dog tries to bite its tail.
                        And  life is always strife...

In the storm of love
     conflicting emotions rage.
             Soft sensual touch.

My body resists.
     No sanctuary in you.
             Spouse of another.

Beautiful, but not perfect
Wonderful, yet hurting too
Loving, but with regret
Amazing, yet painful too

Conflicting feelings
Send me reeling
Love that’s sealing
But still stealing...

After Flynn Was Fired

After Flynn Was Fired he suffered much wrath,
And would end up going down the wrong path;
Each  condition,
Much suspicion;
Containing conflicting ideas and backup math.

Shrouded longings.
Moonlight
conflicting
love and tears

A life melody
fetoplacental
Sung by ghost

Sometimes I'm full of hope and optimism.
Other times I feel hopelessness and pessimism.
It can drive one crazy having such feelings conflicting.
If true balance can be attained, I pray for its fruition
without the use of pharmaceutical medication....

Deep darkness fears me at night, 
Sable thoughts surround me tight, 
Run I to the dark corners to escape, 
Wrestle against inner self and fight, 
The conflicting struggle continues, 
Till I exhaust and lose the might, 
The next day recovers me again, 
And the night brings the same plight....

Juxtapose two conflicting minds.
Against one another they tassel.
Never to complete their argument,
Nick is stuck as mediator.
And it is not a fun job.

Proposition after proposition,
All movements are mirrored.
Rather than agree, they fight.
Kind Nick is torn apart.
Everyday he worries about the outcome....

A butterfly with wings frail
Rises heavenward against the wind
Witnessing life’s conflicting direction
Floating constantly upward
What chrysalis owned you?
How solitary is your world?
Alone each day
A silent, windless end
Fly, butterfly, fly!
Why accept this knowing
You can soar out of the rain
Into the sunny world
Of Love...

Hanging to his dwindling sanity
he haphazardly weaves a net
of confused and conflicting emotions.
Weakened by pangs of futility
the strained fine thread snaps...

Formed from duplicity and hypocrisy;
A falsehood foundation for democracy.

Cognitive dissonance spurred into minds;
Attitudes, beliefs, and behavior blinds.

Exposed conflicting ideas and emotions;
While fabricating illogical devotions.

Psychiatry claim to prevent, but obstruct;
As an inhuman money making construct....

The examination of one's soul
Is that what this is about?
Introspection
Looking in, getting what's in, out

Tortured, confused messes
Tangles, conflicting themes
Self Assessment
Clearly, about that, I can write reams

So, it's all out on the table
On the screen, on the pages
Am I better?
Not yet, still working through the stages...

The human antonym 

Buddhist, but maleficent 
Losing,but triumphant
Home, but astray
Articulate, but nothing to say

Achieving,but no ambition 
Trusting, but full of suspicion 
Cold hearted, but devoted 
Political, but never voted 

Lazy, but overworked
Level headed, but berserk
Lacks talent, but a numen 
All of the above- a human...

Pain is the way my heart pounds.
Love is the sound of your voice.
Pain is the way my breath catches.
Love is the touch of your skin.
Pain is the way I feel when you leave me.
Love is the joy I feel when you return.
How can a person feel such two conflicting emotions?
I can't explain it, and I'm not sure I want to.
But you know the way things are....

Conflicting thoughts in my head,
None escape; left unsaid.
It rips through my organs,
Like tree roots under tarmac,
It's anchored down deep,
forcing cracks on the surface.

Those opportunistic storms,
Further weaken defences,
Cracks widen, highways crumble,
From the core, I implode.
Conflicting thoughts in my head
and more tears still to shed....

Thinking about things that are out of our control is a complete waste of energy
and serves only to possibly create within us all emotional, conflicting enemies,
but at one time fire was considered beyond our control in our distant, primitive ancestry.
If one had not once been, thinking about that uncontrollable fire thing,
I wonder how life today would presently be?...
