Between an Artist and a Scientist
Somewhere Between Here and There
Juggling multiple layers every day,
leaving trails in my wake.
Time to retrace my steps,
and view it all anew.
A fresh perspective awaits.
Inspiration flows
from artist to scientist .
My benevolence attributed to my male character,
going his own way, unsure of himself.
Will he ever be?
He dwells in a world of his own making,
haunted by past battles, shadows unresolved.
His ego subtly erased
lies hidden in his psyche's depths.
When it surfaces,
conscious analysis begins,
a familiar path unfolds.
Drawn from a real past,
into a future fraught with dread,
new shapes contend,
struggling for position in this endless race.
A race where no one wins,
between head and heart,
useless command.

If your male character is how you see me, I have to say that you've nailed it pretty much spot on. If not, I will simply say that I can relate.
