Poetry: Inner struggles

by Gilbert Barrett

Created on: May 17, 2008

Where is my neutral
There are two creatures that sleep under my bed, one is full of life and the other is half dead.

There are two clouds that hover over my head,one is bright white and the other reflects sun red.

There are two voices repeating all that I've said,one is soft and polite and the other is like lead.

There are two fingers always pointing at someone,one seems to direct help and the other is judging someone.

There are two eyes always seeing what i have done,one envisions a future bright,the other sees a future none.

There are two words always spoken to my one,one giving some confidence the other saying it's done.

Where is my neutral,Where is my one!

Where is my future,Where is my sun!

There are two phrases to the both of me I've known,one is begone you the other is leave me alone!
