prologue.
have you ever wondered how life might turn out?
how one decision could lead to an entirely different future?
sure you have, we all have. it’s like in that film, you know the one, something about doors, one instant, one decision changing everything forever.
I.
there I stand on the platform waiting for the 8.03 to London.
have you ever wondered what it would be like to step off the platform and just end it all?
no? I have.
life is a mess, at least in my head, and for oh so many reasons. it would be so easy to end it all, to stop all the voices constantly screaming at me.
and as the train approaches, I take a step forward and welcome the darkness that follows…
II.
there I stand on the platform waiting for the 8.03 to London.
have you ever wondered what it would be like to be the victim of life's most cruel joke?
yes? so have I.
wondering how all those left behind would cope.
it's a beautiful day as I stand with all the other suits waiting to join the daily rat race, but as the train approaches i feel a hand in the small of my back giving me the slightest of nudges but it’s enough and in an instant I’m falling forward and the darkness takes me...
III.
there I stand on the platform waiting for the 8.03 to London.
have you ever wondered what it would be like to take someone else's life?
no? I have...
how it would be so easy, just a nudge at the right moment and in an instant they would be gone.
and as the train approaches, I see my chance, I fake a stumble and fall in to him, just a nudge in the back and it all looks like a terrible accident but I know different.
he falls and the darkness takes him…
epilogue.
three glimpses of a life that could be but which way does it end?
what shape takes the tragedy? or maybe there is no tragedy at all.
all three moments caught in time, all three times happening somewhere in my mind as the darkness takes me...
