I been running all my life.
But only just broke in my sneakers.
Taking on challenges,
Yet fleeing from chaos.
Protecting my peace,
Yet weakening my resilience.
Am I retreating before the storm hits?
Or quitting before it calms?
Should I trust my forethought?
Or regret my hindsight?
I am stuck on the fence,
Comparing lawns, counting flowers,
Gauging the temperature,
Forgetting that God is on either side I choose.
