.:The Tears Of Her Sworn Sister:.Decision:.

She needed Time to Her Mind,
To Think Deeply.
Alone She Sauntered off. .onto the Lake Side.
In the Moments of her Reach in the Vicinity of the Lake,
The Heavens would Thrive.
Reflecting on the Sky’s. .with a Shimmering Lavender.
The Peach Sun Warmed Her Skin as it Set.
She Failed to become aware of the Young Woman,
Resting on the bridge to the Far side of Her.
She watched Her Feet Waver within each current
Of the Water from the Gentleness of the Breeze.
The Young Woman Held an Object in the Palms of Her hands. .
A Piercing object,
One that She had Found in the Midst of the Grounds.
Her Tears grew audible,
As She would Seek to Cease them.
She Knew of this Young Woman Once She Perceived 
The Sounds of Her Cries. .
Staring Her way for a Mere Moment.
She was the Lover of the
Friend She had Fallen in Love with.
The Young Woman began to Cut into the 
Crease of Her wrist.
With the Sight of this, there was a Rush to End Her Actions.
She bared no resistance to this person,
Her Body was Weak. .
She Endeavored not to Cry as the Young Woman would,
Although She did not Feel the Tear,
The One that Escaped from Her Eye. .
Invading Her Endeavor.
She Found Herself and the Young Woman
Sitting aside one another,
The Knowing was Distant of how it Happened this way.
But She Saved Her that Day,
From the Piercing Object She had Sought out for. .
There was a Deafening Silence,
Until She Spoke to the Young Woman. .
They Remained Faint,
Neither Glancing at one another.
Her Words were to a Soft Whisper,

“I am Sorry. .”

The Young Woman would look at Her Intently now,
She Desired to Hate Her,
But She Never Knew Her. .
Only of Her.
So She Responded, Telling of how
He would in No Way Lie to Her.
Despite the Trials of Knowing what is Genuine.
It Engraved Deep in Her,
She was in No Depth to Understand His Crisis. .
For it Never Happened to Her.
They were in an Argument,
She Inquired to Know the Reason for it All. .
He Told Her Only of Truth,

“She makes me happy”

His Words would Echo through Her Mind,
As if it was a Lurid Nightmare. .
How it was the cause of Her in this Place,
To End it, So He would Remain Happy
As He Told Her. 

The Young Woman would Tell of this. .
As it All Fell Apart from Her.
Even Knowing that it was Her
In whom She would Express this to,
Somewhere along this Place. .
The two became Sworn Sisters that Day,
Through Longing Tears. .
The Day they Met,
And the Day She had Saved this Young Woman’s Life.

    What a compelling narrative, Lynette! I believed every word of it, like I was watching a very good movie. When two are vying for the attention of one lover, there is always someone who gets hurt. How compassionate of the one who won his heart to reach out to the young woman in pain. Excellent writing and a gripping story that satisfies the reader's desire for a positive ending. The world may not be perfect, but the bond between "sworn sisters" is amazing. Love, Carolyn

    A beautiful narrative, Lynette...sad but so real..I've always believed that each one of us has a very clear cut duty to perform while we're here..not just to be there to help each other but more importantly we're here to save someone by the extraordinary things we choose to do..it may be a simple act...Thanks for sharing this as it serves as a reminder...Love, Audrey
