Robert James Liguori Poet Rhyme

The Bridge

I take my daily stroll across the bridge
and at it's high point
I look down upon my possible demise

It's been four long years since I lost my love
she left me and broke my heart entirely
but I'm still a love in disguise

I think about jumping to my death
but am holding out for the hope
that one day again I'll look her in the eyes

Memories of her keep me alive
as she was my one and only true love
the beauty under the bright blue skies

But to have a hug once more
and to taste the saltiness of her lips
could only be my soughted prize

Will tomorrow be the day I jump
Or will she return her love to me
For this I hope to realize

Speaks Volumes April 6, 2023 at 11:27 AM A breathtaking poem Robert,. If not today them maybe tomorrow, there is always hope, and ending a life ends all hope, You should not think of doing that because you end the chance that one of your tomorrows will be the day she comes back into your life. Fact or fiction it is a beautiful poem of love and hope.
