Torn

You don’t know what to do

When you are torn between two

It takes courage to choose

Yet someone has to lose

You don’t want to hurt anyone

But you have to pick someone

The tears and smiles were bracing

And you know your heart is aching

Silently you cry at night

And hold yourself tight

Because you might loosen a grip

And take your life in a wrong trip

“I shall decide” as I said

Even if I’m too afraid

You can’t keep both of them hanging

Coz’ both might get tired of waiting
