THE WAR IN MY MIND

Mama, Papa forgive me
Out of sight, out of mind
out of time to decide
Do we run? Should I hide?
For the rest of my life?
Can we fly? Do we stay?
We could lose, we could fail
In the moment it takes
to make plans, or mistakes
30 minutes, the blink of an eye
30 minutes to alter our lives
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to shoulder the blame
30 minutes of bliss, 30 lies
Carousels in the sky
that we shape with our eyes
under shade, silhouettes
casting shapes
crying rain

30 minutes to finally decide
