Which Do I follow?

An angel on my right,A devil on my left,
The devil says, Pain is the way,
Pain, Day by Day, Pain is the way,
The angel says, Hope is the way,
Hope, Day by Day, Hope is the way,
An angel on my left,A devil on my right,
The angel says, Pain is the way,
Pain, Day by Day, Pain is the way,
The devil says, Hope is the way,
Hope, Day by Day, Hope is the way,
They pull and tug,
Each a different way,
If one switches,
Than so does the other,
Which do I follow?

   I agree with Kathryn. "To thine own self be true". You do what Joshua thinks is best. Did someone tell you that you HAD to be a follower? Just being able to express your feelings with a pen and paper instead of by some other means already makes you a very SPECIAL and UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL. Great piece depicting the daily struggle of many people trying to make even the simplest decisions in life....Loved it.....
