Facing/Avoiding

The brain tells to avoid
And the universe reminds
My mind is being toyed
The nth time that I resigned

What if I take action
Because we live only once
Or prep for extraction
So I’ll not look like a dunce

One more heavy deep breath
Should I stay or should I go
Doubt creeping like he’s Death
Final decision is no

The brain tells to avoid
And the universe reminds
Indecision, destroyed
The action I leave behind
