The last mini chocolate croissant,
I left behind with a lot of conviction,
peeps back from that faithful little goody bag
to rescue me this snail-paced dull morning!
But I save it for later,
leaving all temptation aside.
I like to believe it might
wipe out my concerns for today.
These dragging spells wish,
would conclude into profoundness
as I contemplate promising goals…
Perhaps it is only that last croissant,
destined to make me well!
I am responsible for
someone else’s happiness too.
I will lose his trust soon
like I am giving up on my own mind.
Let me take the other route…
Possibly that last croissant
will show me the way.
I won’t eat it just yet…
It feels like a struggle to make good,
the chosen path ,whenever it derails…
The other option never turns out to be better.
Its what's already on your plate,
that’s atleast reliable.
So should I eat the last mini croissant?
I know it won’t really make a difference.
And what if it does!
Well, let me wait and watch.
~ On a deeper note, we tend to hold all hopes on some magical wand to instantly change the 'wrongs' of our life in return of resisting a temptation. The mini chocolate croissant is symbolic of such futile attempts!
