Whispers in the Water: A collection of short stories and poetry

Decisions

At a crossroads where paths diverge,

Choices looming large, like shadows cast,

Each option whispering of destiny's call,

The weight of indecision heavy in the air.

One road leading to the unknown,

Adventure beckoning with a siren's song,

Promises of new beginnings and untold tales,

But also the risk of getting lost in the maze.

The other path familiar, safe, and steady,

Comfort like a warm blanket in the cold,

Yet whispers of stagnation and missed chances,

The fear of what could have been haunting.

Standing still, the world spins around,

Time ticking like a relentless drumbeat,

Caught between two worlds, two destinies,

At a crossroads, where choices define us.
