Part 15

Fifteen

Five years the reports said afterwards
They had been together.

Five years.

Starting off as friends at school.
then lovers at College.

Five years.

Just a normal fun loving couple
Grown up together loving the same music.

Five years.

Scraping pennies together
To see one of their favourite bands.

Five years.

Queuing up in the rain
On the night of the gig,

Conjuring support
For the support act
When nobody else did

Riddled with symmetry
When everybody started head banging

Salved in terror laced with fear
As everybody did when the killing started
And hid behind the bar
As their friends died around them.

Five years.

And in five minutes
Their lives changed forever.
