Chasm

The bridge has fallen into the abyss and the mists have swallowed it whole.
I stand on one side of the chasm watching you go about your days as if nothing was ever behind you at all.
                               How I wish I had your strength.

The mists tease me. Showing me images of what could have been. Showing me images of what I am missing out on.

                               How I wish I could close my eyes.

The distance has grown so great between us. Almost as if we are strangers from two different worlds who only met in a dream state.

                               How I wish I did not dream.

Tendrils of the bridge hang down the walls of what once was. Can they ever be mended. Can they ever be brought back together.

                              How I wish I could just leap.

                                         Leap into the abyss of not caring anymore.
                                                   Leap into the world where you are so that I too could be....

              Free.
