Shadows loom over
Evoking gray surroundings
Confusing your mind
Until one day you decide
To make up mind forever

Cheap art
or excellent craft
You decide
what floats the raft

Good intentions
hell repaved
Choice emboldened
—heaven saved

Premium Member Fair and Balanced--We Report, You Decide

The message they mete out is strong
It's cooked at the top but smells wrong
This cursed wurst to eat 
Slice of life that looks neat  
A baloney treat for the throng

Splash

You have two choices: 
Splash me with tenderness 
or splash me with spitefulness. 
Whatever you decide 
to batter me with 
is what you’ll
be swashed with afterwards.

RIGHT VERSES WRONG

Trust is number one
In this world
But when you decide
That right is wrong
And wrong is right
Remember that the world
And others
Is watching and the trust
Is GONE

Only certain People understand

Either you get it or you don't,
There is no in between stage,
Reality creates the confusion,
You decide the train of thought.

Confined eternally

Not a breeze in the air

How do you know
when your time is up?
Do you wait for the seasons to fly by
or try to maintain your youth
so that your end doesn't seem so close?
Your time is only up when you decide it is.

Premium Member Three Strikes You Win

Touchdown, you win
Three strikes, you lose,
Life is just whatever game
You decide to choose.
Be it of the mind or of the heart,
You can never win,
If you play the game
Without knowing all the rules.

Mama Says Be the Best

Mama says no matter what you do or
Be in life; just be the best, at what you do
Mama says, even if, you decide to be a bum or
Hang in the streets, just be the best one

You Decide

I love you
      he says, smiling.
   Twist his arms around mine,
   fingers along mine,
   mind at pace with mine.
Tick. Tock.
   I love you too
      whispered reply.
Empty words?

Only as empty as the smile.

Premium Member Decision

You will have what you say
Live what you say
You will do what you say
What you say is powerful
Life and death is in the power of the tongue
As the Bible teaches us
Say life
Love your tongue
Love your life more
You decide

Extrapolate

Extrapolate before it is too late,
Before you go on a date,
Before you get out an extra plate,
Before you decide not to participate, 
And find yourself surrounded by hate,
When you could have voiced a way
  for it to dissipate.

Premium Member Animal Worms

The earthworm molds the earth
Canker worms feed slowly 
The truth in nature confirms

You may think you decide
but no, it is this way 
‘cause the worms say it is so

Premium Member You Rule Your Feelings

Glad and mad and sad
Can live in your soul house together
But you are the ruler of all
Every day
In every situation

You decide which feeling
Gets brought out
Choose wisely
And always expect the best
Expectations are everything

Decisions

Decide to make Decisions,
Make Decisions to Decide,
Decide to Decisions, 
Decisions to Decide,
Make Decisions then Hide,
Hide before you Decide,
Confide your Decisions,
Decide then Confide,
Everybody makes Decisions,
Enjoy the Ride.

Eclipse

Lost in the black abyss
that is my mind
is where my thoughts
deep down you'll find.
Dark and Light
at constant battles.
Survival is all
that really matters.
When good and evil
go head to head
How do you decide
which side to defend.

Untitled1

It hurts inside 
when you decide
I've lied.
Everything goes wrong
I've ached to long
I'm strong.
but I'll tell you dear
I need you here
Right near.
All this pain inside
All this pain outside
Too much pain inside
All my pain I hide
