Hot

Summer

I like it!

Winter cold

I like that too!

Bring on summer heat; welcome winter cold

 

Stay in my arms no matter the weather

I seek no more

You and I

I like it!

Nice!

Choices

 

 

Light

Of day

Disappears

You are alone

In the deep darkness

Dangers lurk all around

Your heart beats so rapidly

Myocardial infarction

Each breath feels like daggers in your lungs

Stand and fight or be sensible and flee?

 

 

Be sensible and flee but where to go?

Should you charge ahead or turn around?

Decisions must me made right now

No time to procrastinate

Death if you hesitate

Must make up your mind

Uncertain foe

Stay or go?

Choice is

Yours
