Indecisiveness by Michelle Dean

Indecisiveness

A conflict between who I know I am and who I think I should be
So many paths yet none totally fulfilling
A constant battle in my mind I wonder if I’ll ever be free

A desire for stability pulls me in one direction
But my mind has no compassion for my heart
My soul screams to take another route because they have no connection

Seeking on the outside what I lack on the inside
A compromise is nowhere in sight
How can I achieve my desires when they don’t coincide

Following my mind I’m going through the motions
All the while my heart feels eternally torn
Only through writing do they let me express my emotions
