Uncertainty

February 4, 2018

Dear Uncertainty,

You still prevail,

Through turmoil

and strife

Thriving off my life.

Like a ghost,

you haunt me.

As I eat my toast

Or tie up the trash

Do I do it right?

My, I must be a sight.

I tinker and try,

then let a long sigh,

because I know

That I don't really know

Where, How, Why?

Relinquish your hold!

Make me free!

Am I too bold?

Give me truth!

The questions are much.

Allow me wisdom

Rather than doubt

Leave me

Or...

Else...

Perhaps...

I abandon thee

And seek

The answer...

And master

the art

of...

self-deception.

I won't allow you

to enter me again.

Yes, I will choose

despite what you do,

I will plunge through

and take the risk,

no need to Consider,

what you'd do

I don't care

what it does.

I will take it.

Prepare Yourself,

And always remember,

your distraught victim,

turning to damnation.
