"I am strong and stable"


I am strong and stable

I am split in two

I must decide between my two loves

I have a million thoughts tearing me to pieces, but

I stay strong and stable

 

I keep the same face

I show none of the real feelings in motion

I wear my mask with mortal emotion, but

I have one immortal feeling, a feeling that

I can never seem to kill, one that

I wish would leave me 

 

I feel that I belong nowhere and yet at the same time

I feels as though I belong in both worlds

I understand nothing and at the same time 

I can reasonably argue for either side

 

I am both and neither

I am deteriorating and whole 

I am nothing and I am everything 

I am strong and stable
