Flee or Fight

Sleepless nights and tired eyes
is what’s left of compromise
I miss your touch beyond compare

I taste your lips, and smell your scent
I miss the love in your stare
My dreams so vivid, this dying love relent
Peace will come, that they say
For those that live to see a better day
For now my sky’s are dark
Polluted with what’s left on my heart, this simple mark
I’m done for, this love was too strong
For me to ever love another woman, must surely be wrong
Close my eyes, try to sleep
Pretend this pain will go away, instead I lye and weep
Full of regret and unrealized hope
My potential is great, but not down this slope
How I yearn for your passionate touch
I fear I love you, maybe a bit too much
I feel it in my bones, and throughout my skin
Fighting is futile, a battle I can never win
Always too strong of a high, and too sad of a low
No middle ground to meet in, there’s no place left to go
Maybe this go around we didn’t get the timing right
It always comes down to flee or fight
I would sell my soul, give you everything
To be at the gates of heaven, with only your love to bring
These words on my tongue, I whisper gently
You are my one and only, my soulmate, my family
I am not equipped to love you in this way
It’s all consuming, I only wish for you to stay
I thought you were my forever, I hoped youto be my wife
Feelings, they do change, and this here is life
My heart, so heavy
I am still unsteady
Which way is up, I don’t wanna stay down
Haven’t smiled in days, only this ugly frown
I’ll love you for always, wether you’re here or not
My heart is yours for the taking, the entire lot
