Pain for Sanity

So I would choose to be with you;
that's if the choice were mine to make.
But you can make decisions too,
and you can have this heart to break.
  -Billy Joel, And So It Goes

My heart aches as I fight salted flow;
I want only you in this state of mine.
But do I still have you? and how would I know?
This week I have known much pensive time:

I've torn to pieces my breaking heart
as you watched with glistening eye.
Not knowing how you love me, my mind does fall apart.
Now pain for sanity, answer this question for me:

Will you be the rest of my day?...
Or will you be the rest of my life?
You're worth my love, my pain, my happiness;
you're worth my all; am I worth yours?


Your answer was clear and now what I seek
is the love I will love for the rest of my life
