Contemplative

I try to make sense of it all
But can not clearly see
The problems that I have to solve
Is are you here for me

I’ve thought about it day and night 
But still don’t know what’s what
Don’t want to do her wrong but is it right
For me to just stay stuck

But I can stay with regrets
Wondering what I’ve missed 
Or I can move on to the next
And constantly reminisce 

Either way it goes I’m hurt
So I have no solution
Nothing ever seems to work
A story with no conclusion 

Should I stay or should I go
My heart says yes my mind says no 
A contemplative decision I have to make 
But I don’t know what road to take

Trying to trust my judgment 
But what I want is just not certain 
And I try to add it up
Yet still I’m left here hurtin

  Sooner or later I have to make a choice
And hope it’s for the better
For the better of both of us 
Cause only love last forever
