My heart is torn between 2 possibilities:

Being torn into pieces,
And being mended back together.
Dreading heartbreak,
Or eagerly anticipating reunion.

It feels like a choose your own adventure book,
Except I'm the author and not the reader.
I know the possibilities,
I know how I'll be affected,
But the choice is not mine to make.

You would think that having options causes so much anxiety.
The truth is this: nothing is more terrifying,
Anxiety-inducing,
Immobilizing,
Than your story being the result of someone else's choice.
