I won’t feed the lie
that manipulation carries partial truths.
I won’t stand on a side
that believes happiness can be weighed.
I won’t agree
that indecision isn’t already a decision.
I won’t be convinced
that one person must carry another’s life.
I won’t pretend
our only option was just a dream.
I won’t unhear
the gaslighting, the guilt, the spin.
And I won’t accept
that you still choose to.
