Torn Between Poem by kelvin karani

Torn Between



There is no greater dilemma
That ht of a man unsure
Of the girl to love between,
To pretty ones- in almost all ways

What is a man supposed to do
When he has one and wants the other
Yet he is not sure if it is true
And so, between the two girls
He is torn between, loving them both
Or something of the sort!

There is one that
Has a very sick father
Dying of fear and owns personal inadequacies
Always thinking that his daughter
Will repeat the mistake of gone days


So he sets up intelligence centers
Which the day monitors girls movements
And hands into him substantive reports
Of where she went, who she walked with

The result?
She cannot get close with boyfriend
No time at all for the usual
So the boy thinks he will understand
But the time factor is causing problems
He needs her, she is not there
Its hard; he is loosing to her

Then there is this other girl
Years younger unlike the other
Who is a year older
With clean record so far
Innocent until proven guilty-sort of!

She’s nice, good looking and intelligent
At per her with the firs Give
But having all the time in the world
To spend with his guy, anytime
And this is the course of it all,
It’s the incarnation of his inner conflict

So the man is torn between
Time is making him like girl number two
He is in a quagmire; about to commit a sin
But in all this he prays for strength to go trough
And when it comes to recounting how his life had been
He hopes in his heart he will remain true
