Thy Own Decision

(This is a true story on a tough decision that i had to make.)

I know not of what to do.
Thou can not decide between you two.
But I shant continue to mislead.
Oh, from what life shalt I lead?
It must end right hither and now.
I shall end it soon, but how?
Thy own heart is telling me one.
Mine ownst mind sonnot reckon.
I'm tied between these men of two.
One of which is thy beau!
When the time comes there'll be but one.
It comes down to the final elimination.
The time is now, oh yes it 'tis.
For now a decision it is.
When one's heart will break.
and thy other I shalt take.
It is now the final task.
The winner of my heart will now be unmasked.
