the moment
i’m asked
i say yes
because i can,
not because i want to;
but because
i have a choice,
and at least
this way
i get to choose
what happens,
rather than be
put in a position
where i don’t.

my reflection on the human need to make decisions—not always driven by desire, but by a need to avoid powerlessness; and how sometimes saying yes is about reclaiming the pen to write your own story rather than be trapped in someone else’s.
