I’m standing at the crossroads of my life
Wondering which path before me
Is the right one
.
They all look the same
There is no visible sign
Separating one from the other
.
And yet, I must make a choice
I cannot stay here
Dithering forever
.
Indecision rules my heart
Confusion clouds my mind
Anxiety rises; I don’t know what to do
.
Tears well up in my eyes
I’m lost and lacking direction
My life, a roadmap of mistakes
.
Past failures begin to take hold
When a sudden strong breeze shifts my perception:
What’s been has gone; start afresh
.
And that, I decide
Is what I’ll do
Written for Weekend Writing Prompt #12 Indecision
Failing that, toss a dice.
But no, I think I prefer your conclusion.

A future decided by chance…very interesting…it does remove feelings of responsibility should things go awry 😉

Bon voyage! Namaste 🙂

Yes, quite. I was running out of inspiration towards the end of the poem, and what with the strong winds we’ve been having…well, the ending wrote itself 🙂
