Her complicated dilemma

She sits in silence and contemplates her life with care. As her beautiful brown eyes into thin air they do stare. Glaring is the truth which she will not accept. Her heart and soul remain reminiscent of memories she hides. By his habits and behavior she does abide. Her pain echoes through the walls as she buries her face in her pillow and cries. As their moments of delightfulness and love blossom in her mind. She seeks his presence since he walked away, but alas she cannot find him again. She rebels with hatred and pain. Her soul set on fire and she can't have her heart's desire. She douses herself in alcohol and narcotics. These are the consequences and she never thought of this. She hungers for his heart and longs for him near. Never did she imagine this much fear. Tears roll down her face as she stands on the ledge. Waiting for a memory to push her over the edge. She looks down and finds passerbys look like him and that's her mind's duty. She needs to look at things with collateral beauty. Her foot perched in mid air while at the ground she does stare. That indeed is a long drop, as the door to her flies open. And she finds him there, smiles and steps back over the ledge and falls to her death. The smile doesn't leave her face as yet. He leans from the balcony forward and watches her corpse. He didn't expect this would be her last. He wants to follow in her footsteps as death wouldn't do them part.  The wedding ring on his finger knows it's a fresh start. Sometimes we need to learn someone well before we give them our heart our life is precious, and we can always have a fresh start.
