Where's your mind

Does the music still remind you

of lost loves from old times

Do you replay

those emotions time and again

or have you let go

to let a new love in

Does that love still haunt you

have you told it goodbye

or

do you still look for her smile

 when you look me in the eye

Choices made

 are sometimes hard to accept

But they must be kept

if the love of another

is to be kept.

Love can run deep

like a fresh stream under you feet

soothing and warm

unless you choose to live

for simply flesh

and pride

There is more to loving someone

than just in the making

its being there through all

that life has to offer

Strong for the other and

desiring no other

So I ask you now

Where do we stand?

In a soothing warm stream

 or in a rapid cold tide

soon to be washed away

I leave it with you

you decide..
