Your Choice

Your Choice

Wrapped in a cocoon of
mixed feelings, frustration
and what ifs, my soul aches
for closure, renewal
or some semblance
thereof

Caring for one who’s heart
is incapable of returning
emotion is like spinning
through space, not
knowing if you will land
or endlessly orbit

The heart does not always
choose as wisely as the
mind would have us do

It is amazing how one can make
you feel so good and so bad
all in the same moment

Wise up, chin up, toughen up,
grow up, back up, double up,
take the bull by the horns;
anyway you chose to say it,
the choice to be hurt or to heal
is in your own hands…
