Only know if it's right
Or wrong
Or wrongly right
Or rightly wrong
After the exchange
After the exhale
After the overthinking
After the distraction
Of not knowing where to begin
Or how it will end
Or if it's an ending to a beginning
Or a beginning to an end
Bracing for the inevitable unexpected
And expecting what inevitably happens
When daring to dart into the traffic
On an unknown street
Deciding that no decisions need be made
Not right away
For this is merely just the exchange
