Dichotomy
I’m in this dilemma
With what I want and what I am
My mind is a dichotomy
I just wanna find a time to flee
From all this hurt that’s inside of me
Don’t know what’s wrong with me
What you get is what you see
Standing right here in front of me
This is not who I want to be
Hating what’s become of me
Don’t know what I should and shouldn’t be
Wish I could find the key
To discover my calling
What’s inside of this one little thing
That’s causing all this unreasoning
Something wrong with this poem?
