I Do,I Do

I'm torn in two
Between myself and I
Which way do I tread?
My heart fills with dread
I fear the answer that might be true
I do, I do
Feel sick upon hearing you
But why do I lie?
I know I'll never ask
So sit back and cry
Wait for the day we die
When then, full of courage
Adrenaline too
Will I ask
High in the sky
And lost to the sands of time
"Honey, will you be mine?"

The author's comments:
I began writing this piece as a challenge to myself. I was trying out writing in different perspectives, I thought a doubtful proposer would be interesting.
