Gaming Infinite

The moment she put his hand around her throat,
He saw the desperation in her eyes.

He saw the face of a caged bird for what it was.
A girl lost by all around her.

His mind yelled at him,
'It will not come to that,'
He even said it allowed.
"I wont let it happen, they will not have you."

But her solemn words rung out as she gripped his fingers.
"That's a promise you cannot keep. Don't let me go,"

So he pulled away as she walked away.
Her eyes on a future filled with death.
While he looked at her,
her in a future surrounded.

Dancing, Laughter and even Hope.
He looked to his hand as he repeated like a mantra.
"It will not happen, I will not let it."

Countdown

How long will I continue like this?

Breath deep,
Clenched fists,
Eyes down.

How long will I count down?

10
Breath.
9
Turn around.
8
Breath again.
7
Ball fists.
6
Resist all urges to turn back around.
5
Walk away.
4
Keep walking.
3
Slam the door.
2
Scream.
1
Scream LOUDER.

I can't keep the countdown up.
I'm drained.
Your drained.
All the while ill die inside.

You'll brush it off.
That's fine, brush me off.
One day ill have that courage to do it to you.
One day you'll realize I don't need you.
I never did.

Till then....
Ill count again.
