His eyes are haunted with all he'd seen.
Her lips are knotted from all she'd said,
And their wrists are both crimson red,
From all that's happened.
They both smile and fake a laugh,
They never once crossed paths.

A short breath taken,
As they stared in the mirror at the monster they saw looking back,
They never crossed paths,
And I wish they had.

Running from their nightmares, in the woods,
What kind of place was that
They bumped into each other and stared at their other half.
Seeing each other as they stared.
Looking at their bloody wrists.

Then the boy came closer and I wish you had seen it
It was like fireworks across the world all firing at once,
It was beautiful,
She looked into his now soft eyes,
That used to hide his pain.
He looked at her lips that were now letting go of all the lies.
