Is it Love or Lust

Ask your heart, is it love or lust
For it’s your heart that you should trust 

The heart that pitter patters with every pounding beat
Beats even faster when the two are about to meet

Is it love or lust, my feelings can’t decide
For if I choose one, would the other be a lie?

Love and lust I have a condition of both
I love and lust his hugs the most

Love or lust, will I ever come to know
For the vision I see, I have yet to show

Love and lusting can be so unfair 
When you’re loving and lusting someone who’s not there

With every passing day, the love won’t go away
The distance means nothing, cause on yo mind he stay
