Rene Chabriere Poet Free verse

Friendship Bridges

As far as I can remember,
They were souls connected with mine.
But all the bridges of our friendships
Have moved away:
The boats have broken off their moorings,
And I do not know whether I am going astray,
But each on the  station's platform,
Took they own roads of chance.
Souls may have crumbled,
By following their destiny.
These are missing faded away in the adventure,
Having lost their true nature,
By plunging towards infinity,
They were lost in oblivion .

-
And  in the original conception ( in french )

-
Autant que je me souvienne,
c'étaient des âmes liées à la mienne.
Mais tous les ponts de nos amitiés
se sont  éloignés  :
les barques ont  rompu leurs  amarres,
et,      je ne sais  si je m'égare ,
mais chacun sur le quai de la gare,
a pris les  routes  de hasard .
Les âmes se sont peut-être abîmées,
en suivant leur  destinée.
Ce sont des points disparus dans l'aventure, 
ayant perdu leur vraie nature,
En plongeant vers  l'infini ,
ils  se sont perdus  dans l'oubli.
