Everything is a Choice


Young love, happy laughter, carefree days.

Clasped hands, frantic kisses, heated embraces.

Plans for the future.

A call. The heed.

Love versus loyalty.

Honor and glory versus love and marriage.

Angry eyes, hurt eyes, tear-filled eyes.

One last kiss. One last hug. One last word.

Goodbye.

The long voyage.

Scorching days, freezing nights.

Thirst, hunger, exhaustion.

Honor but no glory.

Wound, pain, blood, fever, dreams.

Home!

England. Locksley. Marian.

The return.

Terror. Injustice. Corruption.

Taxes. Starvation. Despair.

Fool. Sacrifice. Honorable.

Outlawed.

Rob from the rich, give to the poor.

Different directions.

A choice.

No choice.

Everything is a choice.
