The Future

People ask me all the time

What do I want?

From Life?

From You?

From family?

For a job?

A career?

I don't know

Here you are

Making plans

Hurts my heart

I'll have to leave something behind

It sounds nice

It sounds like an adventure

Who to leave?

What to leave?

What do I want for me?

I want you

Can't stand to not be with you

I want my family

The comfort of their love

Their blessings

I tried to shut it out

Just work and pay my bills

Now the future is staring at me

Shaking me by the shoulders

A headache has formed

Right above my eye

I don't know what to do

A future I can't see

Two paths in front of me

With very different roads

Maybe I won't have to choose

Maybe it will work out

But maybe if I have to

Love or Family?

A future with a family

Or a past filled with family

What to choose?
