Turnabout Crossroads

We've finally reached it,
the point where there's no going back.
Where one wrong move can spell fortunate or despair.
And where the way has been craved by all those poor lost along the way.

Here's where it come down to the wire, where the adrenaline
kicks in.
But it's also where the most casualties are, when we get reckless
and don't think things through.
This "small problem", this "private matter",
has grown to be a menace to reality,
and the life of a friend.

No matter what decision is made here, it will end in someones tears.
Or maybe the tears are only the beginning, and the worst will follow....
loss of life is a tragic thing to see, but for some to continue other must perish.
...Or so it goes.
But at these crossroads,
If Fate seeks to tear our very souls apart with it's tricks.....
will we fall, like all those who came before us....
or will we stand, and life for another day.

Only time will tell
