Painful Choice
Tears flowing from her eyes
Her heart throbbing
Her head so confused
Wondering why she’s still here
All this becomes constant
Never ceasing to occur every night
She has no idea
What needs to be done
She’s being forced to choose
Between the two she loves the most
But how can she?
For if she does
She will hurt the other
And make them feel
As if they’ve been stabbed in the back
She’s afraid of resentment and hate
That the other might feel
So what can she do?
Except for cry
And tell her head
That the choice she makes is the right one
And try to release all emotions
And get rid of all guilt that she will feel
If she proceeds to choose
So that when the time comes
It will be less painful
But even so
It will feel as if she’s stabbed herself in the back
