I'm tired of being the one in charge
The leader
The initiator
Deciding everything in our relationships
I know I'm hard headed
I know I'm stubborn
But ****** lets do this your way
I'm tired of deciding alone
Is it just me or do guys let the girl drive always, having someone else take care of me would be nice every once in a thousand years
Shivers down my spine
Straight to my core
Darkness surrounds me like a blanket of smoke
sigh
Two glimpses of light
One to my left
Another close to my right
One is safety, the other... death
A few breaths is my time to choose
sigh
No signs, no clues
Which way to go?
The right is closer
No... Too easy
The left is brighter
sigh
Don't wanna think, don't wanna be
Never ending choices in time
Half a second
Time to decide
Take a deep breath
sigh
Closing my eyes
Welcoming death
I walk straight into the night
Turning left, then right
Turning all around
Eyes closed, in my mind, out of sight
sigh
My turn to die
I have a huge decision to make and all my options look grim.  I don't know choice is right or wrong, I'm praying for the strength to choode the right direction.

Let yes be yes
Let no be no
Anything less
Would be a blow    

Decide on it
No letting go
Just do not quit
Let it be so

Decisions,
Directions,
Conflicts,
Connections.

Who's to say I know best?
Everyday is just a test.

To move or to stay.
To breathe or decay.
To love or abate.
To rebel or obey.
To commit or to stray.

Every kiss begins with K,
but then you factor in fate.
I lead a life of ambition,
with no room for indecision.
But I just don't know what's next.
All I do is try my best.

I can't complain or compare,
The results would be unfair.
I have lots, and others little,
yet life, still gets fickle.

I have little family and fewer friends,
who stay until the end?
I'm not worried or sad.
I just wish that I had:
stayed,
prayed,
paid,
or given away.

You live and you learn.
You decide and get burned,
but thus is life.
Everything happens for a reason.
We'll see what happens next season.

Time.
Time to pick.
Time to choose.
Time to stick.
No time to lose.

Compare.
Contrast.
Pro vs Con.

"Decisions, decisions."
I knew all along.
The first thing I've written this year that wasn't for work. Just venting the typical thought of a 20 something, "What's next?" Having more opportunities doesn't actually make it any easier. "But I digress..."
