Betwixt and Between
Betwixt and between, I seem to have been,
Since a fateful January day.
T’was the day my wife parted,
And I was left broken hearted,
I was shattered as was my life’s dream.
E’er since that day, and now it is May,
I have wandered around in a daze.
When I try to decide,
I get love mixed with pride,
And continue to live with dismay.
Now, in the middle of this, a new sense of bliss,
Arrived in my life just by fate.
A friend I had known,
Opened my heart on her own,
And a new love arrived with a kiss.
Betwixt and between, a choice of life’s dreams,
Was now a new choice to make.
But in my condition,
I could not make decisions,
I was just living in nightmares and dreams
Just needing some time, for reason and rhyme,
To cement a clear path for my heart.
But how can this be,
When I’m still all at sea,
I will just wait, all I need is more time.
Myself I must find, and clear my mind,
And decide on the course of my life.
I must selfishly see,
What is right just for me,
Maybe then what I seek, I will find.
But this I do know, as my experience shows,
A heart can love just but one.
You must first heal the pain,
Before you venture again,
To find true love that will prosper and grow.
