He was not an option

In maze of choices, he lingered as an option,
never the focal point.

His heart aching with the pain of being a mere consideration.

Preferred rather fade into the shadows,
disappearing from her life completely,
than endure the torment of being a second thought.

To him, love was all or nothing, and being an option was a fate worse than being forgotten.
