UNFINISHED BUSINESS.

One step forward – One step back

A memory paused, rewinding its tracks

Lost in the moment, it plays over again

Play, pause, rewind, all in her head

Not again….

Time slows, faces hitting the ground

Then time stops, as their hands reach out

The fire burns all around…

The memory ends with words left unwritten

And the pen stands up from where those words were hidden

Time continued going though that memory stopped there

Her insides tattered and torn, a missing page in a book stripped bare

the smell of burnt flesh of a body was still there…

Cold rain skydived from the clouds

Thickening the air and covering the ground

Footsteps were heard making light, fragile sounds

Red liquid flashed before her when the lightning came

She saw the face that had forgotten her name

The face was gone as it consumed darkness again

And the footsteps continued moving then

That was the face of her missing friend…

One step forward – One step back

A memory paused, rewinding its tracks

Lost in the moment, it plays over again

Play, pause, rewind, all in her head

Not again…

An aged hand reached out, touching stone

While saltwater made its way off her petite nose

Knee's gave out, splashing the mud on her face

Her fingers traced the tattered, inscribed name

Aang…

Through the blanket of rain, soft words could be heard

She'd been here before, waiting for him to return

A long stemmed rose found a place atop his eternal bed

And a broken woman slowly walked away- a product of words left unsaid

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

A/N- Yeah yeah its sad I know. Like it? R&R
