tough choices made
weigh on my mind
and in my dreams
ten perfect toes
walk on my soul
leaving their mark
as no one else
could
would
as years pass
and the tears still fall
silent and alone
choice made
long ago
leaves a hollow
in my heart
and an ache
in my soul
to have counted
ten perfect toes

This is such a sad piece, the choice to or not to, it is the hardest and most regretted question of all. Best to you in the contest
