THE TWO LINES

She always knew when to draw the line
A pact she made mystery to her life
But ruined her were the two lines
She stood mirrored to the bathroom mirror
Her face drooping tears creeping
Her feet to weak to hold her
Cold bathroom floor was the only thing closer

She unblinkingly turned her head
She was sure greatness made
Now all her ambitions a dreadful end
She put up a fake smile to pretend
The doctor looking at her gentle face
Befallen her was what he couldn't comprehend

Images puzzled in grief made her mind a charade as she remembered the fateful day
Her birthday the 5th of May
Left her drinking friends drinks up the table
The sweet moonlight really called trouble
She rolled the streets miss crystal
Never knew her birthday could be her memorial
Anniversary of dead fates the street she took

The eye contact was a glance
Like a predator wanna pounce
Ridiculous struggle all just mumble
Ecstatically joyous for one of the groups
She chose not to remember this day
The day her birthday became her memorial
Now she crying can't even try anymore
What's gonna happen to them

The two lines she always evaded
The two lines staring gazing at her meekly
The doctor talking she synchronizing
The two lines
