DG, you are obviously going through some turmoil at the moment, and I wish you the best.
These are emotional outpourings, which tend to be more satisfying to the writer than the reader - I know I write things like that, but I rarely rate them when the emotion has died down and I read them later; yet I value their usefulness and significance in my life.
I didn't take to 'Indecisive', but I quite like this. The rythm is all over the place, but that describes the intensity and pain/frustration of the emotion to me quite well. I also like it precisely because I don't know the underlying story, and you have several lines in there that just cannot be meaningful to the reader - but it doesn't matter. I am intrigued, of course, but at the same time, there is absolutely no need for me to know the story, to understand the feelings you are describing. So, doesn't that make it a good poem? Not that you particularly care at this juncture, actually.
Stanza 1 Line 3 and stanza 3 line 1: 'your' should be 'you're'
