I have never felt more betrayed
How could you turn against me in the strongest possible sense
You cut me straight to the core in a way no one else can
You force me to change in ways unnatural to me
Making me into that which I passionately despise
Turning the world topsy-turvy making me against myself
My own being a weapon against me, leaving me internally destroyed
When will your torture of a broken soul end
Forcing my essence to split in two
One part to be ignored
Another to exist in blind living
For your crimes against me, I declare war on you,
May the best man live

Treacherous Self
Like all poems, it is full of meaning for the author that can be different for the reader.

May Your Light Forever Shine
From one who has endured a self-inflicted dichotomy?
...I felt so badly for you, knowing what a struggle a self-imposed exile can become. If I've misunderstood your verse I apologize. That's at least what how it appealed to me. Very powerful. Thank you.
Dio vi benedica tutti
Con grande amore e di affetto
