Decision once made

You make a decision and then repent

All your energy has been spent

From indecisiveness to a decision

You have tried to re-envision

Your goals for the future and now

You’ve stepped into the unknown anyhow

You wonder if the right step you have taken

You obsess over whether you were mistaken

About the opportunity you had thought

You should pursue, you had sought

Something to get you out of a situation unbearable

But you wonder if you have made life unstable..

*

To make a major change in life takes courage profound

Once you take a decision, you should stand your ground

Otherwise the “what if” scenarios playing in your mind

Can cause your decision-making process to unravel and unwind

And leave you stuck in the past that ironically

Was the one you were trying to flee
