Tell me this isn’t true. Tell me this isn’t real. Tell me anything but the honesty that threatens to surpass your lips. Why not shatter the promises that honesty holds and spare me the pain? False hopes. False dreams. Who holds the mistake – the mangled truth or the hopeful dreamer? Neither? Both our choices have impacted our present that forebodes our future, but what prevents us from taking a path parallel to one another?
Tell me how.
Challenges of the past and future reside in the understanding of what’s done is done, but what is to be done can be spared. To follow truth or to follow treason; making the choice will cost a price one’s soul will never forgive. I choose you, though with what has this chosen? Take apart what has defined you and observe what lies before you. I shall do the same. There we will find the path taken, but not the path followed. Tell me your choice, for I have chosen you. I will be your guide as well as your follower.
