To Walk Away or Not to Walk Away
My heart hurts
There are times we have to make the hard decisions; those decisions that break our heart.
I’m struggling with such a decision this very day and I know the answer — I know the way forward — but still I’m procrastinating in making that final decision.
What is this decision that’s so hard, you ask?
It’s the painful decision to cut ties with my son; to cut ties for good, because whenever we communicate or spend time in each other’s company, we clash.
To the point that it’s just too painful to continue.
Hence the devastating decision that needs to be made.
I was challenged to write a drabble of the word 'clash'.
Wikipedia defines a drabble as follows :
A drabble is a short work of fiction of precisely one hundred words in length. The purpose of the drabble is brevity, testing the author's ability to express interesting and meaningful ideas in a confined space.

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.

This is so sad. You have to do what's best for you, though. 🤗
Hmmm sometimes the right decision can be so painful. Loved your drabble!
I feel the Clash; love does this to us often. Relatable and heartfelt.
