My heart, it holds on.
To shadows of days past.
My mind, it searches…
for answers at long last.

I know not if I should wait,
or if I should move on.
My mind resists this love,
my heart is too far gone.

What would you have of me?
Should I continue this pursuit?
Am I wasting my time?
Is there nothing left of me and you?

Your silence baffles me,
you never speak a sound.
Your smile captivates me,
your eyes, they do astound.

My heart is forever yours.
My mind conflicted, it’s true.
Should I let go or persevere?
What would you have me do?
