By: the iHope Poet
When there's a lot to hope for, there's even more to lose.
We built our bridges halfway
And ignored the fateful drop as we made our way across.
I chose this path. I chose to lose my heart to you.
And I knew the fall would come sooner or later.
But sometimes we close our eyes when we sense the pain is coming.
Sometimes we choose to live blindly instead of living out of fear.
The love I have for you gave me every bit of that flying sensation I longed for.
Head over heels all the way to the bottom.
You gave me a stepping stone above the deep, dark waters.
A love that covered my eyes like a soft, lingering hand.
Words that lulled me to sleep; as I turned my back to the unfinished overpass -- anxious
for the imminent plunge.
And now that this is over, let's just say I knew the fall would come
sooner or later.
But the water slapped my face just a moment too soon.

You can only go so far across a broken bridge.
