whisper contradiction
By denver nitze
reaching in and trying to rearrange
my brain
my mind wearing thin
insane
i am mangled
torn and twisted within
i want to give up
but i can't stop fighting
too strong to be weak
and too weak to be strong
i scream to the empty
and whisper to none
while tromping through ever
whatever becomes
giving in as i conquer
standing tall
i fall short
and whispering to echoes
conversations of sorts
while turning to darkness
i'm blinded by light
caustic shadows
linger
as
smoke fills the nights
and ever unwilling
give in to grasp hold
unanswered questions
become
unheard prayers
all while finding
another
found yet
...lost soul...

twist it up, spit it out, and there it is. The "too strong to be weak and too weak to be strong" is almost cliche, but it fit nicely with this work, as the rest of it flows back to explain why you said it. Nicely done.

.."too strong to be weak and too weak to be strong"..whisper though it may be, this spoke clearly and in volumes. Excellent grasp of emotion. This was a very emotive, provocative ink. Well done, dear. Well done, indeed.
