Walk through the doors

Business as usual

To the couch

The bullpen

Tea

The comfort of routine

Helps him to forget.

First one there

Papers out and ready to go

To the computer

New day

New cases

Work

The comfort of routine

Helps her to forget.

Day starts, the team is all here

Meet new people every day

The worst time of their lives

Just doing our jobs-

Our exhausting

Jobs.

The comfort of routine

Does not translate.

He glances to the desk, she's there

She's always there

Staring intently at a computer screen

Head down

Deep in her work

In her world

Where justice is happiness.

She barely looks up, he's there

Pretending to sleep

Thinking, always thinking

Hands folded

Lost in his thoughts

In his world

Where happiness isn't an option.

New lead, out to the field again

The team working flawlessly together

Always working together

Synchronized

Deep in the case

In this world

Nothing is fair.

His mind races at lightning speed

Calculating possibilities

Reading everyone-

Innocent

Innocent

Innocent

When suddenly,

A spark.

She tosses theories around

When he rises to his feet

He knows the truth

He has solved the case again

Everyone gathers their things

With driving purpose

Their eyes meet

And suddenly,

A spark.

The case is broken-solved

Justice is served

Champagne is served

Another wrong righted

The need

The thirst

For justice-is satisfied

When suddenly,

A spark.
