True to his word
He stayed
And I am here feeling so frayed
And afraid
Rocking the boat
In treacherous waters
Testing the limits
Because I've never bothered
Feeling so hopeless
And feeling so drained
I thought we were over this
Why must this happen again?
They pull me
Stretching me
Until I'm too thin
No matter what I choose
I can never win
But I don't want to choose
I should be able to have both
Jealousy becomes them
But they have different troths
They each have their places
In my spacious heart
And yet they keep trying
To tear each other apart
I shouldn't have to choose
I shouldn't have to blink
Not when I need to end this ruse
It's impossible to think
I can't keep up
I can't let go
Both I care for
And neither will ever go
But I can't have this tug of war
A game for children
We should be grown up by now
Not fatherless and broken
I want to move on
And if that's selfish, that's fine
I've never been the type
To not care about what's mine
I shouldn't have to choose
Don't make me
My back will only turn
If you're already pushing me that way
So don't let me
