Which One

This one or that one?
Which one should I choose?
Whichever one gets me
the other will lose.

I sit here and think
and get a headache,
and while that's going on
I get a heartache.

I know it's not weird,
and I know that it's common.
Even though to them
it may seem uncommon.

I love them both
with all of my heart,
but which one of them
will have to depart.

It's one or the other.
I can't have them both.
This feeling in my heart
has exponential growth.

Why is this so hard?
Why must this be,
That both of these guys
would feel so much for me?

They both are so kind,
and they both are so sweet.
It's so hard to choose
by just sitting in this seat.

I must choose for myself
however hard it may be,
and maybe I will find
the perfect one for me.

This one or that one?
Which one should I choose?
Whichever one gets me,
the other will lose.
