The Decision Poem by Christopher G. Turner

Cannot sleep, cannot think
For I cannot remember
Don't know what to do
Which out ways the other?

Don't know what to do
I cannot make up my mind
The memories ever fading
Should I shut my eyes?

The memories ever fading
Don't forget the past
Learn from it and move on
Should I even care?

Learn from it and move on
Things happen for a reason
The past is the past
What is your decision?

The past is the past
Leave it where it belongs
This choice is yours
Is their room for both?

This choice is yours
Choose it wisely
Don't forget your word
Why am I awake?

Don't forget your word
Once something is said
It cannot be reversed
Will you remember?

It cannot be reversed
Words have been shattered
It cannot be tolerated
Will you put it back together?

It cannot be tolerated
The pieces can be mended
You hold the solution
Will you see the truth?
