A Coin To Flip

I had the coin and I had to flip
Head on the top, either tail or the tip
The inanimate metal to decide my fate
Chosen by the brain much blurry on the date  

The coin sprang up and kissed the air
Never in its life had it been there
It went for a flip and glittered and shined
To decide the fate between I had in mind

It had all the time to fly and fall
I had all the time to wait it all
The mind though was blurry, eyes but clear
Anticipation rose as it drew near

Settling in the hands it gave its sign
An avalanche of ideas blew in my mind
The flip was of coin, the decision of its choice
Are you decided? then asked my inner voice

Numerous facets of life, a decision of my fate
Two sides of a coin just a single place to bet
With logic and intellect, I had many things to set
But I flipped a coin so what else can I get?

When the mind is blurry, confusion and fear
The use of logic can make it clear
The coin flips up high but low senses are used
Take best possible option when you are confused
