Division Of The Soul

This is about suicide, about the person turning on them self and thus are forced to confront who they are within.

My Mind - Split
One half - There -
                            - One half - There
Who are theys
This self and I
We stand - Silently
Contemplating each others
I am I -
                            - I am I

We utter simultaneously
Shatter! - Conflict!
Maelstrom! - Chaos!
Identities - Similar 
We struggle -
                    - Battle -
                    - Fight

Across Civil War
Until death do us part
Who can help - us - ?
Doctors - ?
                           - Psychiatrists?
                                         Psychologists?

Not they
For what do they know
Of the Division of the Soul?

[KATHY SUE SILLS]

Very powerful write that hits reality! Love the style you wrote it in!

[KAREN]

Very emotional write! This poem I'm sure touches home with many. Very well written!

[Wolf's Dark Song]

A very scary place to end up, battling the desire to die and the desire to stay alive. An awful battle within, it is like a civil war.

[Black Cat Fever]

Good way to describe the chaos in one's when they're struggle with powerful negative emotional issues. Excellent poem.

[Star Wolf]

Doctors and their drugs can't heal but only mask symptoms. This is really good.
