Toss of a Coin

I made a choice then, not sure right or wrong. I made a choice to stand my ground. So why were they there? Those who had nothing to do with it was there. My choice, my fault, my burden, they shouldn't be blamed, shouldn't be punished. But they were. I cried. But crying won't solve anything so I stopped. I steeled my soul, determine not to lose that smile. Not to make others sad. Wanted to bear everything so they won't have to. I must have dropped something on my way here for everything came crashing down. Then, those who had nothing to do with it got caught in the crash. Some got out, some didn't. I know how to feel remorse and regret. I know how to feel shame and pity. I just don't show it much. I wanted to carry a pile off my back and reveal the way out but I couldn't. But knowing them, they wouldn't leave me even if I begged them to. Now, like a fork in the road and a toss of a coin, I can't tell what will happen next.
