Choice
I can choose
What I want to be,
How I feel or
What I see.
The power is mine,
It lies in my hands,
The decisions I make,
Well-thought or unplanned,
Set the scene
For my every day,
As I script the lines
Of my act in this play.
I can be
What I now am,
Or rewrite my part,
Start over again.
Change my lines,
My role and cast,
Create a new character
Or return to one past.
I can feel
What the scene dictates,
Or shift the set,
Let emotions abate.
Change my delivery,
My speech and tone,
Create a new mood
Or leave it alone.
I can see
What appears on stage,
Or adjust my lense,
Repaint a new phase.
Change my view,
My backdrop and props,
Create a new focus
Or enjoy the one I’ve got.
I can choose
How the plot unwinds,
Twists and turns,
Unfolds over time.
The power is mine,
It comes from within,
The choices are endless
Once I begin.
