I lay here alone, on this rainy dark eve My troubled thoughts surround me, Why won't they leave? The crossroads in my life, have now finally come I know I must pick one as I can have only "one" But it's not that easy, to know which to take As I have to live with the choice that I make I loved one yes, I know this forsure but left for the pain I could not endure We have been apart for many months, living all the same The time then came for him to visit, Am I glad he came? My little boys, who missed him so, How their eyes lit up When they saw their Daddy pull in the drive, in such a big black truck The time then came for our eyes to meet and suddenly I felt so incomplete He says he has changed to be the man I require Can this be true? For this is all I desired. Now all these questions, decisions to make Would it be for love, or for the children's sake? Years we were together five plus three Was it all for nothing? Was it ment to be? IN THIS TIME WE WERE APART I MET ANOTHER WHO STOLE MY HEART: Such a beautiful man, inside and out I know I love him, I have no doubt For all I ever needed he gave to me with ease Feeds my emotions, how his words do please He has given me the completness of which I have desired My heart, my soul, my body, he has set them all on fire I breath him, I do, like my body needs air Incredible green eyes, I am lost in his stare I can see our future, I can see it so clear a single touch he takes away my fears When I speak his name it makes me weak I could not loose him he is all I have seeked When I am with him I see the world in color Have I found my soul mate, as well as my lover? He loves my boys even wrote them a story showed them his true self in all of his glory So gentle he is he would never harm them I know if they met him they would love him I SEE MY FUTURE WITH BOTH, FOR DIFFERENT REASONS LORD GRANT ME THE WISDOM TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION. |

Reminds me of the song, Torn Between Two Lovers. I sure could feel your inward emotions getting all tangled up. Good writing. I hope you make the decision that will make YOU happy. Know what I mean, can't please eveybody. take care.......ethome.. |

You'll work it out in the end, but it's one of those paiful times that we all seem to go through! Very well written |

"Torn" is such a sad place to be......my heartfelt understanding. You have woven a wrenching tale of your position...so much confusion and pain...hoping for an end to it soon for you. Welcome to passions by the way  you are a lovely addition, thank you once again for your kind comments on my posts.....all are deeply appreciated~ |

I do not envy you...what a difficult situation...I can't even imagine how hard it must be...but this is such an exeptional expression of how you feel... Good luck to you... I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |
