There is so much good,
        Or was.
Has love been lost?
        Or was it hope,
Of what this love could be,
        And now hope is lost?
How do I know,
        If it is better to stay than go?

So much promise,
        So many abandoned plans.
Is it my fault,
        Something I should have done?
Is this the best relationship
        I can ever find?
How do I know,
        If it is better to go than stay?

I want to let go,
        Or do I?
Yet I hold on,
        Why?
Alone scares me
        Deep in my stomach.
When do I know?
        When do I know?
