There is a long road ahead,
some choices, that I dread.
My feelings are black and white,
I don't know which way is right.
What if I keep going, and I leave,
leaving you on your own to grieve?
You say your heart longs for me,
but my brain feels decieved.
Different choices to the same place,
I can no longer remember your face.
I cannot read between the lines,
a double yellow has left me confined.
If I let you go will it make it better?
Do my feelings to you, even matter?
There is not an easy way out,
and my head is full of doubt.
No sign that this will all pass,
within our love forecasts.
Will things continue to stay the same,
because I feel I really need a change.
What if I stay within this same lane,
and it drives me completely insane.
Some dull road that leads to hell,
when I could come out of my shell.
Why do I feel confined on this road?
Going on so long, a never ending road.
My heart is split, do I change lanes,
or stay close, to where I am constrained.
Stay in close snuggled in you arms,
or take a chance and feel the harm?
Do I stay and work it out with you,
or is it time to say we are through?
There is a long road ahead,
some choices, that I dread.

I want to know why you feel deceived. I think most of the people reading this would feel that, too.
This feels like a song to me. It has great potential.
But -- why is it a dull road?
Don't choose to be constrained, Velvet.
I understand the dread. Would be good to have specific info as to why you feel that way.

I do agree I need ot add more about how im decieved but haha its been so long now that i cant even really remember why i was feeling this way
and at the time my exboyfriend and i were still together and he reads most of my work so I didn't want to make it too personal because i didnt want to upset him..
thanks for your lovely comment.

Ever thought of turning this into the song? i could almost feel it with the rolling rhythm. . it lends itself to being one of those "well spoken" types of poems. Just a thought.
Thoughtful. roadtrips through love can be rough at times! Your honest emotions that you let go in each line are what make this pieace beautiful and rich. Enjoyed the read

I do write songs
. maybe. I was just remembering Drivers Ed, and they teach you about all these laws and lines and boundaries and it really related to what i was feeling at the time
