The stormy clouds reflect my mind
What do I do, whom do I choose?
My parents or my love?
Cruel fate tells me to pick one
Between my two eyes, How?
How can anyone do that?
Can’t they see, can’t they feel?
That I’ll be happy this way,
They gave me life, they should know this
He knows me more than myself
He should get that I can’t abandon my parents
They need me more than I need them
Suffocated is how I feel when both press me
What would be my decision?
What do I do, whom do I choose?
This write-up is for the picture prompt @ Rochelle Wisoff-Fields
Until later 🙂
Dear Kerithana,
Welcome to Friday Fictioneers. That would be a tough choice to make. Nice one.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks Rochelle!
Lovely poem that hits closer to home than I’d wish lol. Also “what would be my decision” second to the last line 🙂 it happens. Well done though
Thanks! Corrected the typo.
A very difficult choice and one that probably many Sophie’s of this world are faced with. Let’s hope she gets a rational answer and puts an end to the dilemma 🙂
True, it is harsh of life that many have to face this.
Oh this would be really tough. I’m so glad I never had to face anything like this.
Good for you! I had to for a short period of time and that’s what prompted me.
Great take on the prompt… Welcome
Thanks and Welcome!
I wouldn’t want to be there – between a rock and a hard place.
Lily
Yeah, none would! Welcome here 🙂
Oh! I hope no one goes through this choice :-/
I do too!
nice poem describing the dilemna
Thank you! And welcome here 🙂
Indeed a tough choice and not an enviable position for anybody!
Good job with the prompt, Keirthana!
Thanks Uma!
Kerithana, It’s a shame she needs to make a decision like that. She should talk to her parents. They will never have grandchildren unless she can marry. Well written. 🙂 —Susan
Thanks Josh, what I intended was often people in love are pushed to a place where their parents don’t approve of their love. Therein comes the dilemma until one or the other get convinced in someway.
I guess everyone would have have to come across that stage at some point or the other. But it should not come down to making a choice between two. Even if it does, it shouldn’t feel like you are making a choice. (Okay, I have no idea what I just said. Guess, I need to brush my words a little bit.) -_-
By the way,

Thanks for your time. 🙂
Take Care.
True, for some time I was in that situation and at another point my hubby was there. So I wondered if everyone faces this dilemma one time or other, irrespective of how they come out of it. Also, there is another take for this – people who are homosexual often end up being in this dilemma more. Whatever the perspective is, love is always same. So it shouldn’t be like this, like making a choice between your roots and the rest of your life.
Whoa! That’s a surprise! Thank you, I will go over and check it out 🙂
What a dilemma to make. In the end, I hope she makes the one decision that she won’t regret for the rest of her life.
Not a good place to be in, isn’t it? I hope so too and it might also be a he 😉
