For Those Who Are Courageous, by Alan Maguire

For Those Who Are Courageous

We met by pure chance, we met by the river, she was gonna do it and nobody was going to stop her, nobody was going to intervene. “ Listen Lady, I don’ t want your problems, I just wanna watch, ” I just wanna see someone do as they said, this world is full of liars and cowards, you can’ t trust anybody these days.” You could tell that she was hesitant, you could tell that she wanted an excuse, her eyes told me. But she never begged, she was so brave. Perhaps I could’ ve grabbed her, but who the hell am I to intervene?
