Impossible decision

By: Abby S.  

I look to my right, and there he is.

The guy I'm safe with.

The one who will always be there for me.

The person I have history with.

Pure and beautiful memories.

And then the other guy, the one to my left.

The guy that makes me feel alive.

The one who will have me chasing him to the ends of the earth.

The person who makes me question my life.

A pure and beautiful experience.

So here I stand, with the one guy to my right.

Meaning he'll always be the one who's right for me.

And the other guy to my left.

Which seems kind of irrelevant, until you realize the left side is where the heart's at.
