"This is about the choice you made, not mine."
That's what you said.
And it keeps playing over in my head.
Well, maybe those aren't the exact words.

But yet, it stems from those you declined to make.
You chose too.
Unfortunately, not what I'd hoped of you.
And it hurts.
And what's worse
is things remain unchanged
Because every day
You are choosing
for life
to stay
the same.

No matter the consequence
Bravely we must face
Accepting our mistakes
Not

at the things people do and say.
No thought to the pain,
these people are oblivious and vain.
The animosity
