Decisions

Should we say it, or should we back away,
Should we just go ahead and speak our mind;
Sometimes we wait and we wander astray,
But then that chance we had is left behind.

What if we do go and shout it all out,
But it’s too early and we fall apart?
What if we let it pour like from a spout,
And becomes what we want: a brand new start?

These are the thoughts that pass through all our brains,
Should the girl be asked by the love-struck boy?
If she says no, here comes a heap of pains,
But if yes, then an overwhelming joy.

All these thoughts just go right on rushing by,
And we are back to where we started. Why?!
