I'm torn between choosing a familiar pair of arms,
Or choosing none at all.
There is an unaccustomed air around the lack of contact, but I know what it means.

And while it's not entirely wrong that it would be easy to fall back into a bullshit habit,
To fall back into those stupid arms,
It is utterly self destructive.
And I always end up at this conclusion after I ride the high of their attention.
Moving forward is my only option,
It is the only one that will keep me happy.
No person or thing ever will.
Nothing else has sustained.E.
