The world around me swirled
My mind forevr whirls
I am stuck
Trapped
Forced to pick a side

I watch everyone fight
Lose their heart and soul
I am stuck
Trapped
Forced to pick a side

No one ever listens
I scream my cry, yet it is forever unheard
I am stuck
Trapped
Forced to pick a side

They insist
I refuse
I am still stuck
Always trapped
Still forced to pick a side

Choosing sides is what life is all about. Nice poem - reminds us we have a terrible responsibility in life.

A lovely poem, fully bringing together what life if about if simple words. We either follow our heart or follow the crowd, it's unfortunate that the crowd always seems more tempting.
