Two sides
I know these feelings are real
I can tell by
The way he looked into my eyes
The way she smiled at me
Him promising to shower me with kisses and all his love
Her leaving me with thoughts of lifetime joy
But the devil
Oh god the devil
There’s two of them
Constantly fighting and demanding that choose
Tearing me apart
They hate me
Force me to pick a side
I could never have both
I know
Do I really love him?
Or am I afraid of what everyone else will think?
Is she really the one I want?
Or am I just entranced by her beauty?
I don’t know if these feelings are real
