Choices

I've come to meet two paths,
On this long and lonely road,
Which one to greet I ask?
Is it wrong that I just don't know?

See one path is colourful,
But the other dark and dull,
In this life I wonder more,
Is this the true start of my walk?

See the 'good' path looks tempting,
But good has been less truthful,
The 'bad' path looks empty,
But bad is what I'm used to,

It's seems I'm spoilt for choice,
As I struggle to decide,
Shall I follow my inner voice?
Or patiently bide my time?

This pressure is building up,
As my emotions start a feud,
Shall I leave it down to luck?
See I could win but at the same time lose,

It doesn't help I might be overthinking,
But still what else am I to do?
I'm not indecisive but this decision,
Got me thinking through and through,

Am I wise or am I a fool?
The choice raises more questions,
Is fate blessing me or being cruel?
Or is this choice the real lesson?

I start speaking to myself,
"Come on Jess decide"
Why has this card been dealt?
And am I my only guide?

Right or left right or left?
That's the question on my mind,
I turn to my family and my friends,
To see if they'll be by my side,

It seems no one has an answer,
To all these questions on my brain,
Will I be blessed with utmost pleasure?
Or will I be burdened with more pain?

Either way I guess I'm to decide,
I can't change the rules to this game,
Thanks for giving me some of ya time,
And thanks for listening to the thoughts on my brain!
