William Hromada

Choice between Livers

 

He waits at dawn with coffee in hand,

She calls at midnight with a reckless plan.

One offers roots, the other wings,

Both pull at the heart with different strings.

Do I choose the fire or the steady flame?

The whispered secret or the one who knows my name?

Love’s not a path, it’s a quiet war,

Between what I want and what I’m fighting for.

I stand between them, heart split in two,

Wishing the answer would just walk up and choose.
