Pause

Pause... Inhale. Exhale... You can't undo things that have been already done. You can't make decisions when they don't make a sound. You can't turn back when you're already there... You can't surpass time without feeling despair. I can't just stop thinking like this. What is life going to be? Taking two roads at a time, will it be blissful and free? I was trying to be rightful taking my own place. But that didn't work! I shut my good pace. If there will only be time to allow me to take a few steps backward, I'd like to recreate and keep moving towards... I'm on the other side of the road, sidetracked and inflicted. What will it be if I'll take the other? Will it make a difference? The art of decision-making mesmerized me! It gave me a picture of myself but that isn't something that I want to be. Dignified and strong, is this how I was made of? But I wish to be more! Something that I ever dreamed of. Lei Strauss, 2020
