When Push come to Shove

The bitter wind caresses your skin
as you sit and write.
A sense of sadness,
melancholy
&
contrite.
There's still so much to do, something isnt right.
It's in the pit of your throat, anxiety
gripping tight.
These are feelings you can't explain,
you try with such might.
But the words are stuck,
STUCK
causing a spike.

Your mind races, thoughts you cannot contain-
Standing mesmerized.
You antigonize.
You mollify-try to contrive.

Now your mind, a blank slate.
Unable to think straight.
Situations deflate
... GAW!  Your body shakes...
"It's to late" notions inflate.
Naïvitée, your heart palpitates.
Blood pressure is rising.
STOP!
It's time to actuate.

Pull up your big girl pants.
Consider options way in advance.
Is it worth it? Do you take the chance?
Do you try to prove a point and take stance?
What's the best decision under this circumstance?

Although it's like slamming ones head on a red brick partition.
Although your uncertainties reaffirm your admonition.
You figure you could follow your intuition.
It's never steered you in the wrong direction
Is that a statement or a question??

One can only ponder.
You always wonder.
Has your life been squandered?
Has it made you stronger?
OR
Has your life been conquered?

By;
Outside forces that you can't even see?
By;
acts performed by others deliberately?
 By;
You.........absentmindedly?

It doesn't matter the cause or substanciation.
Things need to get done in any situation.
There are pros and there are cons.
It's for you to get the best resolution.
If you feel you can't do it alone,
Speak to someone to get a conclusion.

Because suffering in silence;
Lets be honest now....
You can sit and pout,
OR
You can stand and shout.
What ever it is you decide and without a doubt.
When push comes to shove;
New ideas will sprout!
