As I walked across
this empty bridge of fading dreams
I felt an urging deep loss
and still to me it screams
I peeked down to see the water
so dark on this cold winter night
I couldn't stop looking and tried harder
but this mist came within my sight
I remembered all who had gone
everything that was no more
it stretched out like a giant lawn
and I thought it canged what I stood for
I walked a little bit more fast
because that part of me seemed so wrong
this me wouldn"t have last
she was away from the world so long
as I walked past the end of this bridge so sad
I craved to be able to go back again
I wanted to have another look at the memories it had
I turned; the bridge had gone; I don't know when..
