Have you ever felt so confused

that you didn't know up from down

right from wrong

smart or stupid?

Spur of the moment doesn't work anymore

I'm not young and free and alone

there are other people I have to think about

even thought I want to do what feels good to me

How will my decision today

affect my tomorrow?

Will I be happy

or will I be dissatisfied?

Is it all me, me, me

and not enough you, you, you?

Did I ever stop to think

what would happen?

Can I undo the wrong

or was it even wrong in the first place

Was it meant to be

or only what I wanted to see?

I can feel the confusion

tumbling in my brain

My heart skips a beat

everytime I stop to think

Round and around

decisions, choices and wants

Should I or should I not

be what I feel

Up and down and around

thoughts and mistakes

mix through me

until the darkness comes

Away, away and away

gone never to be seen again

It blows away with the wind

but leaves the marks to remember me by

They say, let your conscious be your guide. One should listen to that feeling inside the belly.

Thank you Seesawmae! I'm glad you liked it.

Funnt Bunny :-) yes I get confused too usually when I think too much LOL! I think alot of it comes when we don't wish to listen to our concious as poewhit says?
at least that's how it seems to me, it's like I think I know but I don't for sure so I look at it from 100 different angles and then start all over again LOL!!!

Another good poem. Good use of language. A bit more discipline perhaps in the structure of your poems but you have me as a fan.

Running around in circles. Your conscience is reliable because if you have a good heart then your conscience is trained to make you feel guilt for something that you have done or are about to do.
I really liked tha last two lines, they summed it up really well. Hahah, i have always wondered why your poetry was like it was but i just read your response to Irwin about the paragraphs hahah. Thats good to know. Nice piece Lien.
