DECISIONS
DECISIONS
(T. Beechey)
An echo of the slamming door was the last she ever heard
Not a word was spoken as she went around the bend
It was an end to a nightmare very few can awake from
Now she's come to her senses with a message she can send
She made her decision and there's no going back
Gotta stay on the track and keep movin' on ahead
Words were said that weren't intended,but that's how it has to be
Since she made her decision,she walks paths some never tread
He watched as,round the corner,her shadow slowly faded
He never anticipated that,indeed,she'd follow through
Now there's nothing left to do but hush the coming sorrow
Why wait till tomorrow when the thought's still fresh and new?
He made his decision and there's no second chance
He can't advance any further than where he's standing now
Somehow,he'll have to travel on this journey alone
All unknown to everybody who has made that silent vow
Somewhere,there's a lesson that no one ever bothers learning
So,we just keep returning to the places that we were
As her fate is undecided,his phone keeps on ringing
Never bringing any closure to decisions in a blur
They made their decisions,now each must face what's awaiting
For underestimating values that the other had to share
So unaware of the consequences of their actions
Now time ticks in meager fractions through eyes which only stare
