"The Decision" By: Amy M. Kennedy The clock is ticking, and time is of the essence Day flows into night, night flows into day The Decison Which way should I go? Do I side with my heart? The tool that has betrayed me in the past I am a believer in second chances, in new beginnings, in starting over The Decision It weighs on my mind like a restless tide I want to believe that your words are honest and sincere But my mind tells me different, for it seems to know the truth The Decision I lay awake at night wondering what should I do? I am a optomistic spirit, believer in the glass is half full The deceit and the pain can not be denied though The Decision Your words of the past play on a video that is only seen in my mind Truth vs Lie Fact vs Imagination Real vs Fake Reality vs Fantasy And still the clock ticks, time being of the essence The Decision ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |
