As the night falls, I look out of my apartment’s window I come down and walk on the road Of this dreaded but beautiful place Thinking about you again and again Like light you were more than watts Never diminishing. Though it fills most of the places My heart is empty that you used to fill I hold back the tears and memories No longer this bridge is empty My tears have formed a lake I see a ghostly reflection in it Of who I once used to be. I fall softly off the bridge Drowning in my pool of sorrows.
