Bridge Poem by Lesa MRK

Over this bridge, I cross-
It's such a dark night,
A dark life....
I'm all alone.
Nothing here,
But the pain in my heart.
Very slowly I cross,
Cautiously...
Feeling afraid,
Cause there is nothing but fog....
And I am all alone.

I cross the lonely bridge,
Toward a point unknown...
Leaving behind the rainbows
And the dreams of old...
Leaving it all behind
For a world so cold.
A world I prayed I would never know.

The bridge, so wooden and old,
My weight it barely holds,
As I walk this cold dark night
Toward a world unknown.
Leaving behind the sunshine
As tears sting my eyes....
Thankful for the fog,
Which sheilds this sorrow.

Oh lonely bridge,
I cross you again....
Darkness and a point unknown-
Take my sorrow....
Erase my pain,
On the wings of a butterfly
Far, far away...
As my steps resound in the silence.

Halfway there....
My fear rises up like a spectre
I look back....
Yet there's nobody there
The sunshine is dying
Or perhaps its my tears
Blinding me,
To the fading beauty.

Halfway there....
And no where to go,
I cannot go back
Yet I cannot cross-
I look over the edge
Of this fragile rail
Into the cold dark water
So sad,
For there's no where to go...
No escape...
And so for now,
I'm going under.
