The Crossroads

Hours and hours go by

as the showers rain

It feels like minutes only passed by

With you time feels irrelevant

:

Flowers bloom in

the house of my veins

As the music and the lovin'

is paired with sparkling conversation

:

Feels like I've known you forever

but it's only been months and days

:

Feels like I could love you forever

yet feels that you've taken my heart in vain

:

Fighting my feelings

because I don't wanna make another mistake

:

Fighting my feelings

because I don't want the joy to become pain

:

As much as I have given to you

sometimes I wish I didn't

Yet as much as you have given to me

makes me feel conflicted

:

Sometimes I wish we could go back

to the days we were planning our dedication

Sometimes I wish we could go back

but that's the past

and the current is where we stay

:

Sometimes I wish I could tell you

all the things in my brain

Tell you about all the feelings

pumping in my veins

:

I know you've been acting real coy

because you feel me too

I know we could make something special

if you made me your boo

:

But you keep yourself distracted

in the arms of girls who will never be me

And I think it's because your past got you scared

to dive deep into something real

:

But I don't blame you

my past has me presently

scared sometimes too

:

As much as I care

and would love for us to finally date

I won't sit here feeling like an option

Someone you don't value for what I bring

:

Because I'm someone special

and if you don't love me right

I'll find someone else who will

:

But I'm back and forth

with my head and my heart

Still there's something about you

that keeps me hanging on

but I guarantee it won't be long

if the uncertainty carries on

:

Because as much as I trust you

and love how you make me feel safe

As much as I love all the ways

we laugh, make love, and relate

:

I just can't keep holding on

to someone who won't cherish

the value of what we share

in the connection we create

until they realize it's too late

:

But there's a part of me

in the heart of me that hopes

you'll figure it soon

and we can take a leap of faith

:

Yet there's a part of me

in my mental attic telling me

I can only hold on for so long

and guarantees that I won't wait

:

The battle seems endless

between the heart and mind

At the end of the day

At the end of the line

:

At the crossroads

I hope it's our souls that shine

when we finally decide
