Choice

Magical places
Flash through my mind.
Mysterious faces
Dance there behind.

None walk beside me,
And none front nor back.
No safe place to hide me,
Companions I lack.

Choices unchosen,
Love lost and gone...
Life can seem frozen
When you're all alone.

I stand here and wonder
Which road should I choose?
With life torn asunder,
My mind left to lose.

Which path, the right one?
I must decide.
Or stay in this night, one
Where lies do abide.

Why have I come here?
Where should I go?
Living in such fear
Of time's ebb and flow...

I wait and I ponder,
Year after year.
How long have I wandered
In this dark place, here?

How long can I stand this?
How long 'til I break?
A decision at hand, this
Great choice I must make...

"Alone" in this dark place
You creep in behind...
Your touch makes my heart race
And startles my mind.

With one simple kiss,
You breathe life into me.
You open my eyes,
And you help me to see.

Once my hand you have taken,
You lead my heart on...
Out of Life's dark night
And into the dawn.

Having shown me the way through,
You'll show me far more,
And we'll go there as "Two"
Where "One" couldn't before.
