To Fix This Broken Bridge

These cinders fall to the waters below, I am lost, scared, alone, She felt the urge to burn it and burn it she did, And here I am… alone, alone. As my heart pumps and lurches forth I feel the calm – the urge, “Let go” This Anniversary… alone, alone. I confide a hero I could have been But these ashes and charred remains Only fall to the sea of brokenness and disappointment The distance of this canyon only grows And her green eyes disappear... she fades “I love you i really do…” she claims from the arrow’s note “sorry again” I falter… I crumble… Alone…
