Decisions!


How transparent the life would have been
If there were only two peaks-
Yes and No
Without lingering at all these levels
Of turmoil.


I see how indecisive I can be
Soaked up in all half sentences-
Maybe I can. Or I can’t. Can I?
Asking myself again and again
No breakthrough.

  “Disclose and Discern”, people say
It do aid me at times
But
Just as I think and re-think,
I renounce.


As the timer goes down to zero,
I shut my heart and flip a coin
And here
Lands the coin onto my hand
I slip cowardly.


It could be any of "yes" and "no"
For neither is what I want
My choice
Lies buried deep in the past
I regret.


All I need is a little push
To set up my mind and
Walk through
As I have done this long and
Still doing my best, whatsoever.

How frisky my life would have been
"If only I was brave enough
To decide
At that requisite moment."


--The risk of a wrong decision is preferable to the terror of indecision.
