CHAPTER ONE;

CHOICES.

HER

I thought it was easy you know,
Just one strike and we were home,
I thought it was the end for me,
I thought no one would notice if i left,
I believed life would go on and be,

I picked up the gun to pull the trigger,
I believed in magic when i was young,
One bang and I'll be somewhere different,
I didnt do it.

You see i didnt do it not for a reason
I didn't do it not for a passing season,
I didn't do it for there was no promise,
No euphoria or grief in it's premise,
At least not that i know of,

I dont know what comes after,
Will i really be sorrounded with laughter?
For such petty not so petty reasons i let go,
The gun from my hand i withdraw,
Untill the end comes I'll grovel,
After all its the least i could do.

HIM

Time and time again
Getting dragged into the abyss,
For no reason with nothing to gain,
The desire to stand before the bus strong,
The wish to uphold my life for long

When emotions cross with desires,
When the mind malfunctions and the heart retires,
That split moment was all it took,
For my entire life to be shook.

At that moment,
When thoughts tortured my mind,
When answers i couldn't find,
When the desire became so strong,
When the drought seemed prolonged,

Am not ashamed to say,
It was but that day,
When i closed my eyes,
Braced myself and after several tries,
I'm not ashamed to say i marked myself,
To vent the building emotions,
To tame his raging demons,
A marking that was the start of many.

A/N

They were different.
One could fight her thoughts while the other succumbed.
One struggled to be free while the other struggled to be happy.
They were different yet alike.
To each their own,they fought their battles in their own way.
