 Fractured Personality


Born with a fractured personality in need of life's healing;
Conflicting  broken shards distort this picture of who I am.
Shattered like a windshield hit by a golf ball, visibility is limited;
As my personality  is distorted, I can't even see very clearly.

Pulled in completely opposite directions by my personality
As these conflicts war within my core; who will win in the end?
My desires of the flesh battle the desires for higher purpose;
The war rages on in every decision that I make in every moment.

Do I make a consciousness decision, or do I please my flesh?
Do I focus on temporary pleasure, or on doing the right thing?
Each decision either empowers my soul, or sucks it's life out.
I decide every moment to begin to heal, or continue fractured.

For every footstep on this pathway that I take is measured,
Vertical or horizontal is always the choice that I must make.
If I seek wisdom from my soul to choose wisely, I have a chance;
But if I live unconsciously, I will remain a fractured personality.
