A Game of Chicken

A game of chicken
where we deny we’re playing
and neither shall win.

A game of chicken
where we deny we’re playing
and I do not win.

A game of chicken
where only I am playing,
I can’t ever win.

A poem for the lost chances, the missed opportunities. For the hesitant, the anxious, the afraid: take that step or you might find that you no longer can.
