She’s caught between the flames
of inferno and ice
Accusations of blame,
of who’s not playing nice.
She’s caught between the fury
of defeat and aggression,
For neither is sorry
and all leads to depression.
She’s caught between love
crushed between hate
a magician’s dove
that is stuffed then must wait.
She’s caught between threads
stuffed up their sleeves
’til she’s dangling her head
beneath the nearest trees.
“She’s caught between the fury
of defeat and aggression”
I can relate to that so much. Beautifully written.
Thank you.
I’m glad it spoke to you.
I see so many pairs of friends, both couples and unattached pairs, who get into conflict with each other, when I love them both. The vise can get sooo tight.
Oh, yes. It’s hard to be Switzerland.
