The incongruity between your words and action do not surprise her. After all you owe your allegiance to your inner demons. But she aches to comprehend her inability to stand by her own convictions. Seems, your false allure has blinded her irrevocably.

“allegiance to your inner demons” Intriguing, I would like to know more of the story!
We all have problems. We may blame other people but we have to blame ourselves at some point.
We all pledge allegiance to our inner demons in varying degrees. Thought-provoking piece, Atreyee.
Oh, I think our love for others often blinds us…sometimes leaving us quite irrational.
The place of incongruity between words and actions is one of the most hurtful places! Great response to the prompt.
Wonderful piece, Atreyee! I particularly love the way the third line describes her inner conflict. 🙂
Blinded by false allure…I’ve been there, too! Excellent writing, Atreyee. 🙂
Oh that ache not to be able to stand by her own convictions – that really hurts. So well described.
You have portrayed the inner conflicts so well, dear. Lovely writing, as always.
That incongruence between expectation and reality. How saddening. Time she learns to let go of those. Novel interpretation of the prompt, Atreyee 🙂
Oh, the broad reach of those inner demons, and the way they can entrap the tenderhearted. Great piece, Atreyee!
Ahh I identify completely with this, not being surprised by someone’s inconsistent words and actions, but still not feeling able to do anything for myself about it. I really like that she’s aching to understand her OWN inability here, not purely aching for someone else. Really great.
The language in this piece is so strong and full of conviction, even as it describes how conflicted she is. Really good job. Thanks for linking it up!
Love can truly blind you. Good take on prompt.
