Exile

Exile

If I stay, I will pour my all into you

And you will receive everything you need to thrive

Which will leave me with nothing but regret or even worse, resentment

If I leave, I will soar to accomplish everything I imagined and much more

But, I care for your well being equally as much as I care for mine

Damn, the clock’s running and with only two options

I truly wish there was a middle ground
