Conflicted While Fighting Inner Morals

nadapooh
By nadapooh

Striving for greatness, but destined to fail.
Reaching for heaven, while living in hell.

Anxious to take, but reluctant to give.
Fearful of dying, and hasn't yet lived.

Wants to relax in the sun, but a creature of night.
Keeps doing wrong, but wants to do right.

Trying to stay young, but feeling so old.
A warm person at heart, but comes across cold.

Has it together, but falling apart.
Ready to finish, and has yet to start.

Living a life doing nothing, but dying.
Keeping a smile, at the same time crying.

Wanting it all, but has just a bit.
Desperate to stop, but can't seem to quit.

Happy here, but wants to be there.
Running in place and getting nowhere.

Craving that poison, but trying to refrain.
Feeling just great, when really in pain.

Keeping a promise, but feeling so torn.
Proud of one's self, and too, feeling scorn.

Thinking no one cares, but sensing concern.
Sparking emotions are cold, but the memoirs still burn.

Feeling so lonely, but afraid of devotion.
Wants to love openly, but can't show emotion.

Staring in awe, but trying to ignore.
Wanting just a little, but swearing, "NO MORE!"

Wants to take it easy, yet looks for gloomy weather.
With God by my side, we'll do it together.

♪♬♬ A traffic jam when you're already late

A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break

It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife

It's meeting the man of my dreams

And then meeting his beautiful wife

And isn't it ironic, don't you think

A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think ♪♬

- Alanis Morissette

This is the real irony of life. . .
