A Bridge between us 

I built a bridge of words to span the gap, 

 

The chasm left when love began to fade. 

Each stone I laid in hope, without a map, 

Yet still I lost the path that we had made. 

Would you return, if only you could see 

The strength of what I feel, the depth of care? 

Or has the river swept too far from me, 

Its currents carrying you elsewhere? 

I’ll wait upon the shore, my heart in hand, 

A beacon lit to guide you through the night. 

For love like ours was never meant to stand 

A heart’s confession 

Apart, but burn forever, warm and bright. 

If you should cross, my arms will hold you fast, 

A love reclaimed, unyielding, built to last.
