My decision



she comes to me in my dreams
telling me not to give up

that her son was meant for me

and its only I who can help him see

that he can love and be free

what she dose not seem to get

is its him I truly want

but this pain must go away

tho if I leave my heart will surly brake

they all tell me to stay away

but this is a decision I must make

for no family, friend or, ghost

can choose the path in which I walk

I am strong and can let him go

but its him that I choose

so I will fight for what I want

with light, love and, hope on my side
