Lord R. E. Taylor Poet Free verse

The Decision

The Decision

Wait just a second
A moment before you make that decision
It could be nothing important
It could be a decision that could change your life
Better or worse it is impossible to tell
Don’t ask for advice
No one knows better than you what is right for you
They will tell you to say yes
Others will tell you to say no
That confusion will make your mind hurt
It will hurt so bad it will make your head explode
Relax with a cold drink and daydream of paradise
Just take a minute and think
Judge your options and what they may make you do
Then after you have made up your mind
Think again
Think deeply about what you want
Then once you have thought so much your eyes cross
Make the decision
Live to regret it
Learn to love it
It is your decision and only your decision
If only you have the courage to make it
