A game the whole family can play

Nothings changed, it's still the same.
Hiding in stones like shell less hermits, trapped in their prisons.
Life’s jealousy creating hysteria and turning emotions to stone.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth and a fist for a face.
Should time have stopped and given them the rewind button?
Or should they have skipped to fast forward?
Regret is too strong a word, but forgiveness is too decent.
The weaker sex has the strongest will and the mature strategy was taken by the elder.
How to use a garlic crusher on a dream.
One day you’ll be able to see again, but by that time you’ll be the only northerner.

This is the result of a glass of wine and the discovery of forgotten word document called ‘My Book 2.’ See if you can spot the connection between the above and below…

“His situation at home wasn’t good and a lot of things had changed in the past weeks. But he knew she was there for him, yet it wasn’t enough. How could she be there for him when he would no longer talk about it? Suddenly out of no where he had locked himself away and there was nothing she could do. Maybe he would come back to her or maybe he was talking about his feelings to somebody else. Should they have waited, ignored the silence and just believed that their last kiss was not going to be their last? Maybe she should have, but it’s impossible to protect yourself from more damage when your guard is completely down.”
