Dilemma

Do has undoable consequences
It is something never to be returned from
Even if you only use words and no actions
It can be as addicting

Do can bring unquestionable happiness
It can also bring you the worst you will ever feel
Not because what we've done is wrong
But we may never want to go home
Is home where we are supposed to be?

Don't brings a horror to mind
What if this, and what if that
Our minds don't work that way
We don't question that

Don't says we may be afraid to hurt
The void that was within was filled thus taking years of torment away
The fear of hurting that way again is dread enough
Who says don't is an option either?

Do nothing. Yeah right
Make me believe either could stand for that
Sitting on the proverbial ass waiting
Even if we are putting our thoughts down we still are doing something

Do nothing suggests more than fear
It says we're our insecurities are worse that we thought
This is ridiculous to the other yet perfectly sane to who thinks it
How can we do nothing?

So you see the dilemma
The do's the don't(s) and the do nothing's
We're both sure of some not sure of others
We're sure of each other
But not what we would do when together
How do we clarify this?
