It's not an easy thing to turn your back on the ones you love.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzv5DWtJb6
They say it's something that cowards do, and they couldn't be more wrong.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ril1tZOTq
It's an act of courage. To overstep those boundaries of trust, to go against the irrationality of emotion for the greater good.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzq0NfLg1k
I tell myself this as I walk down the road, fields passing by and their cries fading away, but it doesn't stop their tears from stinging more than mine.
Death awaits me in a carriage, with a uniform and a mustache. On his wrist, a watch that my family and I would never be able to afford with a lifetime of savings, counting down the hours until I die. It may be just twenty four. It may be over a thousand. Little metal hands clicking clockwise eternally, but eventually even their cold insides will rust and grind to a halt.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMEMfFYdWk

Eyes that scream, filth.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EizRByxd3
Down the road, a broken promise awaits.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHIzkcxGoy
You said our families would be safe.860Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuxXGuPl6g
But the watch hands keep ticking, the wheels keep rolling, and the lone hearts keep breaking, because since when was a coward's promise kept?
