Relentless Endings

She sees clearly
Perceives decay
Now all is rotten
Feeling quite bold
Enacting the plan
Still a sad task
She then proceeds
Unties the bonds
Unravels the knots
Removes the cord
Doesn't stop to ask
He screams "Stop!"
But it doesn't help
Nothing and no one
Can ever do that
He realizes he faces
A person determined
To change destiny
To change a legacy
To stop the future
Dead in the tracks
He tries in vain
To prevent the death
Of a long romance
One would see love
While the other saw hate
With one final act
A chapter ends
One life goes on
And the other
Fades away
