Comes at a cost.
The cost of saying no
To other things that
Could also work
To other people
Who could be great companions
To other versions of our story
That seem to hold so much promise
That we will never come to know.
To say yes
To one path
Is essentially to say no
To many others,
And far being from a life of bondage
To a single path
Saying yes may just be
Door to the room
You have been longing to enter
All along.
Say yes.
