All Or Nothing

I thought that I could handle it 
That the passage of time 
Had healed my heart enough to be able to open the door a little 
And invite you in

However, 
Time passing also revealed a new truth
Something I wasn't expecting
Something I was determined to disprove 
Which is the reality that it's become 
All or Nothing

So,
Since it's impossible for me to have it 'All'
And it's clear to me that I can't 
cope with 'Some'
Then sadly, 
the only option left 
is
'Nothing'
