Greetings
To the attribute that set me free
And ensnared me once more
To the root of fight or flee
the difference between abhor and adore

Salutations
To the aspect that renders empowerment
to the moral and amoral
The bittersweet sense of implement
Shrouding the everlasting floral

I acknowledge your absence
Within every relinquished breath
When all options condense
Our inevitable death

you have abandoned thousands
You’ve encaptured them
In the webs constructed by their hands
Why is it me you’ve decided to condemn
When I’m submerged in your capsizing sands

I took you for granted, Choice.
Your absence plagues me
Without you I have no voice
No one perceives my plea
