Make a decision
Flip a coin
Draw straws
but the decision isn't
as easy as it seems
Take what's here and now
or predicate everything
on what could be
Thinking,
"maybe, just maybe",
but baby how can I wait?
when time is my enemy
We're so close
and so far away
Paradoxes running free
Neither of us can see
if we will reach the end
that we both need
Go to that place
in our minds
where we meet
And we have to choose

annaswirlsabout 19 years agoI like the tone of internal conversation shared. I get a feel that this poem kind of runs away with itself--
I am not sure if this adds to the mood of decision or not? Maybe with its internal dialogue it works to feel rushed, but if you want to become more centered on the decision, you might try to make the reader feel a part of it in the structure of the poem. More line breaks. Pauses.
Just some brainstorming, ignore what doesn't work please :)
