Sometimes giving up is not wrong

Is not bad

Is not cowardly

Regardless of useless commentary it doesn’t make you weak

Or pathetic

Or broken

It just means you’ve done the smart thing and you’ve looked

You’ve listened

You’ve thought

And reached your decision that it’s not worth it

It’s not possible

It’s not happening

So you make a rational choice that you just can’t do it

Can’t accept it

Can’t live with it

Because recognizing the truth is always better

Stronger

Healthier

Than living a lie.
