CHOICE

Once upon a time long ago,
As I was sitting on a limb
All alone of fear of myself,
Never to know was I sane
As I heard the silent whispers,
The ever lasting, never quiting of the voices in my head,
Was I sane and if i was,
How long could , would I last,
So then and there I made a choice
Never to return again, to that limb
Of long ago,
But for myself to find
A far better way to meet my end,
So i said, It's time to just let go
So i let slip my gental grip
And fell from the limb of life
But only to find myself snatched out of air
To fall in the hands of God,
He said I give you one last choice
It is yours to take
Your life this day,
Or let me be your guide
And show you the way,
But to that limb you must never go again,
For it is thin and slight to break,
But come with me
Unto the tree,
And climb again to a different limb,
So I said yes and it was so,
Until the day temptation found it's way
Back into my heart,
It tried to lead me astray, down that unlawful way
Back to the limb where it all began,
As i got up to walk,
I thought again of that choice long made,
So I said nay nought be it me,
For go find someone else
For that limb is through with me...
