Dilemma Poem by Uche Nwanze

I found love in a strange place.
Should I run, should I stay?
I found love in an obscure place.
Should I perish, should I turn back?
I found love in a complicated place.
Should I jump, should I duck?
I found love where I never thought of.
Should I embrace it, should I bolt away?
I found love where I never dreamt of.
If a hungry man sees bread in a garbage bin, should he look away?
I found love where was never spoken of.
If an explorer finds Treasure in the Lions lair should he abandon his expedition?
I found love where Angels dread.
Should I fight, should I flight?
I found love where fools can't tread.
Should I turn, should I burn?
I found love where it shouldn't be spoken of.
Should I live it, should I leave it?
I found love where it can't be heard of.
Should I swim, should I look away?
I found love and the love so true.
Should I sail on, should I sink?
It is love pure like snow.
It is love fresh as the morning dew.
It is love flawless like perfection.
It is beautiful like the ageless Sun.
I found love in the arms of another.
Should I retreat, should I pursue?
This love I'll never let go.
This love will never die.
I found love, I'm never going back.
I found love, if I perish, I perish.
