When Its Time to Decide
Legs are stone;
unable to crack into a run.
Stomach is tossing and turning;
with no intention of settling.
Chest is heavy;
forced to push and pull for oxygen.
Arms are prickling in anticipation;
questioning which way to wave.
Neck is weak at the stem;
in desire of a warm pillow.
Emotion and Logic racing to the finish:
Heart -
lost between ticks.
Brain -
forgot how to tock.
Both battling for Gold.
