And Yet, There She Was…

Every time there was a promise made,
She trusted it!
Every time there was a decision taken,
She acknowledge it!
Every time there was a change,
She accepted it!

And yet, there she was…

It all began happy, and of course it was,
It always showed potential, and of course it did,
It always spoke of a better tomorrow,
And of course, it was wrong.

And yet, there she was…

She knew she had to walk away,
She knew she it was the right decision.
She knew she had to take that step,
But she could not.
She knew there was no other way!

And yet, there she was…

And when the fateful day arrived,
It was as everyone believed.
And when it blew up in her face as she had expected,
She knew this was the end,
Not just for everything she had hoped for, but also for her.

She knew she had a second,
A second to walk away; A second to escape; A second to be happy;

And yet, there she stayed…
