Agency

So strong, nothing faltering
So sure of staying strong.
A simple thought,
Embedded in their center:
What if?

Thinking too far in the present,
Too prideful to see their fall.

Their family is thrown to the wind
As they drop their lives behind
To follow a purpose that
They are stuck in, unable to live.

Blinded by fear of what would happen
If they opened their eyes to see
What they have done to themselves.

A trembling parent prays
With the force of someone destitute.

Nothing in return,
But a hand is still reaching out.
