EO's Poetry

I Know
© 2000 by Erin O'Reilly

With confusion from the start
You question your heart
You know not what to do
With these feelings so new.

 

Which way do you go?
Your mind tells you no,
Your heart says you must.
Which do you trust?

 

Nothing seems clear,
What are you after?
Confusion and fear,
Happiness and laughter.

 

You tire of feeling lonely and sad.
You wonder how a love can be wrong,
When it makes you feel glad
And fills you with song.

 

The struggle remains
What to do?
What will cause the least pain?
What is best for you?

 

You look within
To find the solution.
Can love be a sin?
You only find more confusion.

 

I feel the same way.
I know what you are going through.
Will the answer come one day?
I wish I knew.
