I am in love with John
I love him with all my heart
But I have one big problem
George is in love with me
He loves me as much as I love John
I stand in the middle of two giants
The pull and push forces are strong
All are taking place within my heart
Crazy ghosts are dancing in my head
My body is shrinking to a smaller size
I grew thinner. I grew slimmer
I have got a waist of the best size
I became prettier than ever before
But this is an expensive beauty
The price is too high
Can I afford it?

the tug and pull of divided love is an expensive dilema ... superb metaphoric quality to your poem ...

Abdi,
We choose one and hope for the best. Hopefully I pray the price is not too step.
