Forever inflamed in my heart.

And perpetually gnaws away at my soul.

Even conflicts between the distraught beings inside of me....

Left us confused after making confession;
In lie was caught,
And became distraught;
Do not want President position possession.

feelings 
flow out 
of her 
big eyes 
pearls melt

but fails 
cries more....
