Let Me Know

Should I remain ready
Attentive and alert
Should I remain available
Every time you get hurt

Should I never move on
Find no one else for me
Should I wait and wonder
What you and I could be

Should I speak only
to comfort or to praise?
Should I believe that you’ll be back
When you’re gone without a trace

Should I then still love you
With all my heart and soul
Or should I just silently leave
And risk you being alone?

Nice monologue. Love is sometimes intriguing, can't expect much. Live it will you have it.
