Life, when it gives you choices 
Schemes to make it difficult 2 go with the heart or the mind 
Only if singing the right notes were silky and easy 
But then again that would not be Life..  

Caught in a dilemma 
Having nowhere to go 
Looking into the mirror 
Hoping to find some answers 
Gazing long into the soul.. 

Dark is alluring 
Exciting, Enticing, Forbidden 
Yet also bringing with it lonely nights 
Tears and unsatisfied emotions 

While the safe haven spins carefully 
Calm, Stability, Tranquility 
Soft smiles & meaningful glances 
Ripples on the skin slowly spreading 

The struggle again 
Silent debates with the self 
Me not knowing how to win 
The strong battle so deep within 

So then I try, to take a leaf from your own book 
Let time takes its own pace 
And with it, the decision unfold 

Till then I can simply wait and feel 
How much dear you are to me
