Conflicted

Conflicted

By

Nathan Caleb Camerer

There’s a war raging

It’s raging inside of me

A war between my mind and my heart

A war where my passion is playing Switzerland

Battles brought on by awkward encounters

Awkward encounters where I think of you

The angel in my bed

The future embodied

Maybe

Possibly

The war rages on

What to do

Where to go from here

The war rages on

Collateral damage

Friends lost

Friends gained

Is this real

Am I being used

The war rages on inside

It took awhile for you to find me

Can you save me

Can you end the war

The conflict continues

I’m a police state

And you are the occupying force

Enforcing martial law

The war rages on

Can you end the war

Can you end the occupation

End it

End it now

Can this war be over

Can we end the war that rages

The war that rages inside

The war is over

The war is over

No longer the angel in my bed

No longer enforcing your will

Your will that I willingly follow

Searching the wreckage

For anything that is left

Finding nothing but knick knacks

And trinkets

The war is over
