"Im sick and tired of words that don’t mean anything." She said to him.
He nodded. And saw.
Then he smiled.
And out of his mouth came one tiny word, that pierced her right through.
"Come" he said.

And she wanted to. More than anything.

It was funny how this man said so much with one word.
It was almost, as if he was the word.
"Come" was what her ears heard,
but what really made her heart pound was the meaning of it all,
the words clinging to this simple invitation.
"Come, join. Die, live. Suffer and rejoice. Give up and gain. Let go.
Love. Not as you measure, but as I."
So it was quite clear,
Entering the new chapter would include death.
Though looking at the mans smile,
she knew that not going would mean a much more dreadful death.
So yes, she did want to.
