You, please take my heed I'm not ashamed upon serving to your every need But while proud I can't out loud Admit internal tempests Here, two halves of me How can they be simultaneous, or have I yet To one forsake, and one partake Must I decide or perish? Placed in the middle am I Is it futile to try To be separate as one? Am I to wander on the line On an edge sharpened fine Tell me, which one am I? Am I an ember Flickering, fading Matter intangible, and yet once more I burn For something grander, oh Am I a whisper, Here in an instant Vanishing just as fast Oh, please tell me I at least can say I am adequate! Fresh from fertile fields of circumstance are the seeds that beckon forth with life What shall I grow What have I sown For such a crop of inner strife? I beg of you your sympathy For I know you feel the same as me Your hand in mine, though we have died We may continue living Placed in the middle am I Is it futile to try To be separate as one?
