Choice

Here I am staring at you
and I can't stop thinking what should I do
while I know you make me happy and feel loved
there is someone else that for you is above
I want to say that you are the one for me
but I know that could cause a catastrophe
another who cares for you is very close
while I say I might have a chance I don't want to boast
because I know that you mean the world to her
and I wish for this problem there was a cure
I want to talk to you and hear the warmth of your voice
but in doing that I could be making a wrong choice
because while I care for you with all of my being
it is her you should be seeing
because when it comes to it she deserves you
and I know in my heart it is true
so I will weep in sorrow and shed tears for years to come
but I will know that are with the one
and so I will learn to move on

The Gift of Pain and the Heart

The heart is a curious thing

although it is just an organ emotion we say it brings

the feeling of pain and fear

and comfort and happiness for all to hear

it causes us to feel an array of emotions that control our being

some that make us so blinded that the world we are not seeing

but it is the pain that comes from this organ that makes us wise and brave

even though during these rough times only happiness we crave

through the troubles of our heart and mind 

we can find the person we must be and leave the past us behind

it is a trouble of a thing being torn into pieces of shame and hurt

and feeling like during this pain our friends choose to desert 

and leave us to feel this pain that will make us shed tears of horror and grief

but yet during this time we are growing like a new leaf

growing into a person that can face various challenges on our own

when it feels like us against the world and none of that past fear is shown

this is when we see that the pain has served us well

and because of that I had this story to tell
