Ode to the Sixth

Unwelcome and persistent
She screams about things I do not want to hear
Constant and truthful, she feels everything
That my heart, selfish and aloof
Chooses to ignore
Usually I try to push her out, but she is far stronger than me
And a lot more straightforward
Sometimes I manage to make her go, Or so I think...
but then she returns in my dreams
And I awake amongst constricting blankets and a heavy feeling
in the center of my stomach reminding me
How my conscience is not so quiet
and that my intuition is my best friend.
