A Choice

Life's choices are harsh, but sometimes it's the only way...

There was 

No other way

It had to be

Done.

She would 

Have

To choose

One or many.

That was the

Decision.

But what could

She do.

One was 

Important

But so was

Many.

The choice was

Crucial.

If one died

Then the one

Leading her and 

The others

Would vanish.

The decision soon

Came and the girl

Chose.

She pulled the 

Lever and

Watched.

Many were 

Freed.

One was unfortunate.

She stood with 

Tears in her eyes.

How could she 

Let that happen?

Now she was to 

Be led by someone

New.

She used to 

Have

Something that was a

Part of her.

Now it was 

Gone.
