A Conscious Decision Poem by Eric Cockrell

A Conscious Decision

Rating: 5.0


everyday...
a conscious decision,
to live with arms outstretched,

or to run and hide.
to dare to be
what you believe....

or to hide in someone else's shadow.....
to walk to the edge,
spread your wings and fly....

or to cower in fear in the nest.
to get your hands dirty,
or to turn the other way....

to fall down, and get up,
or to lie there and quit.
to give unconditionally,

or to take without remorse.
to speak the truth...
or to settle for the lie....

everyday...
a conscious decision!

A conscious decision made by the brain. But a subconscious decision made by the heart must take place first, I believe. Another masterpiece!
