Its Upon My Heart I Gauge

While I ponder this and that
Not yet turning the page
My heart and mind debate
At the procrastinating stage

As procrastination continues
Decisions are adjourned
Postponing the next stage
Thoughts tossed and turned

Always needing to be certain
Decisions will come later
One step forward two back
As always the procrastinator

Keeping my mind over matter
Its upon my heart I gauge
I am not one to go headlong
Life I pondered at every stage

Heart is half full or half empty
Emotions flow in and out
Whatever decisions I make
Will be those I am sure about

Hope, my friend, sometimes we have to just jump. Risk is good for keeping the heart young.

(mind you, I said "sometimes")

What a great thing it was to just pack up and leave off to another world, for me. I wasn't sure of anything, and I even thought I might have lost my mind, but it did me so much good.

Now I say "certainty is boring" LOL
