Decisions, Decisions...

Contributed by kayald on Thursday, 4th March 2004 @ 11:09:15 PM in AEST
Topic: DreamsandWishes

Choices made and then forgotten
At a long ago time and place
Deep emotions run under the surface
But diminish at the sight of another face

Inner secrets and fear hidden
Deciding not to show what we feel
Too many questions remain unanswered
And we’re left to wonder if it could be real

Words, words, have no meaning
With no face to tie them to
Hoping and wondering who I can trust
A question to be asked when I get my cue

Take the chance—it’d be my choice
And in the end how will it be?
A pain too hard for words to comprehend,
Or a joy that will echo within me?

I wouldn’t mind taking this leap of faith
If our doubt weren’t leaving us blinded
But uncertainty runs too far, too deep
For me to be that simple-minded

Maybe this is just what I need
Nothing too close and binding
No souls that share too much between
Or a love to keep me from what I’m finding

No one to stop me but myself
Yet I think far too much
Advice with warning from distant friends
Has left me wanting to get close enough to touch

A choice, waiting anxiously in my hands
I try to push it aside for another day
But colliding forces meet through precise actions
And make me face what I’m meant to say

Incidental happenings and long regretted mistakes
Decisions made long ago
Effect our lives until the end
And when we’re gone, what’s there left to show?

My choice, so small and insignificant
May seem an unimportant thing,
But it could effect who I am for life
And leave its scars or a beautiful sting

Tomorrow’s destiny is up to me
And though it may not matter when I’m grown
It’s all I can think about today and now
And when the moment comes—the choice will be my own.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
