The Red Line


That thin line

You can't see it, but you know it's there.

What lies on the other side is what tempts you.

Once the line is crossed however it can never be undone.

You long for that chance to do something bold.

What will change though?

The consequences could shatter everything you once had.

That red line could now be transferred onto something much more dear to you,

Your heart.
