Make A Choice Poem by Joanna Pavlides

Make A Choice



My heart is stubborn
And screams like a child
It does not want to
Say those goodbyes

How do i make it
Break away
How do i tell it
You cannot stay

You have your life
All worked out
An Inconvenience
the love turned out

It wasn't planned
It wasn't wanted
It caused only havoc..

And look at us now…

The only plans
We can make
Is how to survive
Another day

I struggle not to
Pick up the phone
You're stronger than me
You no longer call

You say to yourself
It's easier that way
Stay where you are
And not move away

It's not complicated
just follow your heart
Whatever it whispers
Don't try to fight

I will respect
Whatever you do
You leave or stay
I will still care

I'll love you from close
If you're by my side
I'll love you from far
If you depart

Just make a choice
Just decide

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Saadat Tahir 13 September 2012

Torment and tribulation writ large… Almost emblazoned across big Ben like a huge hoarding The hoarding held down by weighty considerations of here and now and blown billowing out straining the threads like distressing adversity…. The lines take small sad steps across the page like a Chinese girl tiptoeing up to her ‘master’… The tea ceremony goes on….the calm and composed upfront barely holding the turmoil and testing torture within Liked it… ***
