Internal Collision

Decision decision

I have become divided beyond comprehension

Two extremities make me ponder of a neutral ground

One which mitigates the risks of both points

Yet ameliorates their benefits

This conflict within me is quite enigmatic

The divide between the need for righteousness and romance

Hence I seek a reasonable enough balance

One which gives both causes their due

One which lets the divinity prevail

Yet gives room for the matters of the heart

I fear losing the one I love if I tarry on virtue

I fear losing my soul if I continue in flirtation 

And I fear losing both shall I remain lukewarm 

Such an apathetic life will be punished 

So where can I find this perfect balance

There is place beyond the trade off 

One which allows both to coexist

Could this chaos be settled?

I need pertinent wisdom to attain this 

I would have to tread carefully with humility

Else this collision will persist

"Ever get that feeling of being pulled in two directions". ... I change my mind a lot, so, yes. --- This was an interesting subject, with divided role-playing all the while, but I wonder if being married would solve the problem; I believe that it worked for Muhammad, Peter, and Moses. :)
