Poetry for the Soul

I thought it might be nice to have a place where we can post poetry. Our own or quotes from others if allowed. I'll start with one I wrote today when I couldn't sleep at 12:08 a.m. It's about a decision I have to make that will alter the rest of my life:

The Decision

By me

In the midst of my turmoil, In the blackness of fear

I searched all around me, For a choice that was clear

In panic I stumbled, Then fell to my knees

And there in the stillness, I cried "Help me please"

A peace came upon me, And steadied my soul

For I knew from then onward, Which way I should go

The darkness had vanished, In that moment of time

You see the choice that I made, Never really was mine!
