Indecision


Indecision guiding me to the edge, 

Struggling between what I do feel, and don't. 

A string to pull to keep me off the ledge;

Knowing that what I want to do, I won't. 

Stuck in between, paints pictures of a dream. 

Wrecking my life but also wrecking yours. 

All the words I speak to you, I mean. 

These foreign feelings simulate downpours. 

But it's my happiness that's on the line. 

So I will choose to do what hurts me less. 

I, the boat, and you, the current this time;

Beating on, but it's what I think is best. 

Risks are taken no matter what I do. 

Danger cast aside, what I choose is you.
