Point of No Return
Not a cloud was in the sky
On that beautiful summer day
Birds were singing sweetly
But her mind had gone astray
Her thoughts were filled with gloom
As she strolled along the bridge
Each step brought her closer to doom
As hopelessness set in
She stopped and looked at the water below
As it glistened in the sun
She'd reached the point of no return
Soon her life would be done
But as she leapt off that bridge
She immediately had regret
There she was, not wanting to die
But plunging to her death
