I Couldn't Do It

I couldn't do it. I fingered the truth, like you play with your nails when you are nervous and want desperately to avoid biting them. Sometimes it pains us to make choices and we refrain from making them. We must have conviction. We must sometimes take the path that leads to sorrow or loneliness. I could do it. I did it even.

This time I couldn't find the right answer. I couldn't do it. It wasn't that I didn't try or I didn't want to solve it, it just looked like a chess table when check mate has been reached. No room for movement, nothing would budge. My heart was weary. I could not do it. No matter how hard I desired it. I just could not.
