Analysis of Stories Unraveled



The story begins
 With pain?
 With love?
 With sadness?

Shall it end?
 Or will it continue?

Shall love prevail?
 Or sadness conquer?

Conquest of pain
 Or shrapnel of love?

All are possible
 Or are they?

The story goes on
 Never ending

But then did it really ever start?
