Choice

Eyes wide open and skeptical,
Contemplating the outcome,
Fully sensing my eagerness,
I observe myself wearily.

Here lies a non-trivial
Choice between possibilities,
Yes and no, just two of them,
Changing life irrevocably.

Doing nothing is one of them,
So safe and predictable,
A check mark is a sure thing
In the credit part of my karma book.

Shall I opt for the other choice,
One that yields the uncertainty,
That will test my ability
To withstand the temptation net?

Is the choice an allurement trap?
Should I be content with not knowing
The degree to which I'll be altered
By the rays of the darkness sun?

"To be, or not to be" - a very tough choice!
Best wishes!

Thanks! Well, in real life I did risk it and passed, thankfully :-)
