A Bridge To Far

A steel grey sky 
Electric stars shine 
on a far offshore 
a bridge to a better place
beckons you to cross
to a destination, you will never see.
Your worries left on the roadside
along with so much unspent love.
A man known by so many  
left to walk alone 
to the other side   
So many songs will go unsung
who knew song lyrics don't float 
and my tears will  be lost
in the tides of the forth 
I'm away now. Folks
away.
