the choice
She could have broken your heart,
But instead she broke her own,
For she did not want you to feel the pain,
That had been all she’d ever known.
She took away your tears,
In exchange for her smiles,
She gave you back lost time,
And turned back the dials.
Laughter was exchanged for sadness,
Your order for her chaos,
Your joy for her depression,
Your gain from her loss.
She could have been selfish,
Deep down it’s what she wanted to do,
But her crave for a joyous life,
Was overridden by her love for you.
She may seem fine,
Behind the false grins,
But inside she is screaming,
Why could she never gain any wins?
She gave it all up for you,
But she couldn’t rid you both of strife,
So she chose you instead,
But the suffering caused her to end her own life.
