Undecided

She sits endlessly
Staring upon an empty sheet
Thoughts filling every fiber 
Yet, the page remains blank

Chapters from a past
Novels for the present
Just dreams for the future
All locked away

Passions to describe
Memories to release
Within a head heavy head
Resting on weak shoulders

Self punishment is engulfed
Trembling hands refusing to type
To protect all
From my emotions

Illusions of control
Shattered by stupidity
Reality rising with the sun
Another day of contemplation

Demanding my eyelids close
To sleep
Decisions postponed
For yet another day
