Poem: Choices

Choices

By abbyweyr May 2011

Inspired by Twilight Saga novels by Stephenie Meyer and fan fiction

Some things just happen

Nothing you can do can change

What has happened

You make decisions,

How you react to

What has happened

You choose

How you think about

What has happened

There are always choices

No matter

What has happened

Some choices will be

Bad

Mistakes will happen

Perhaps a painful lesson, but

They can be corrected and

Outcome changed

Some choices will be

Good

With desired results

Some choices will

Surprise

With results

There are consequences

No matter what

Choice

Will indecision paralyze you

Will joy lead you forward

Will sadness fog your path

   

Will anger cloud your judgment

Will compassion be your guide

Will arrogance poison your dealings

Will envy color your life

Will revenge be your goal

Will temptation be denied

Will visions become reality

Will over analysis delay you

Will regret haunt your future

Will fear hold you back

Will curiosity lead you astray

Will wonder be your friend

Will hope be your companion

Will faith light your way

Will love be your redemption

Will instinct or thought or love

Overcome all to win

Will a balance be found

What we are can not be changed

But that does not

Make us who we are

Choices we make defines

Who we are

Who we will become
