One Day

There’s the bridge way over there

Do I have the strength to really care?

So lost, so afraid to walk that path

Yet not sure how much longer I can take the wrath

Been brought down in more ways than one

Had the chance but I guess I didn’t truly want to be done

Some people just want to leave the night

Other people just wish to see the light

I’m in between the two

For me though that’s not all that new

But I have visual of that wooden bridge

Flowers trying to cover the open damage

Although I don’t know what I expect or hope to find

Just puzzled by what’s going through my mind

One day, I could be bold

Until then, will you give me your hand to hold?

A well written, open and honest exploration of theat writing way things are at a particular time, I was particularly taken with the last three lines where there is the acknowledgement that matters may be difficult o understand right now yet (in the concluding line) one is reaching out, gre

[Angel]

Yeah, it was meant to correspond with the whole almost adult hood thing yet not there yet. I'm about to walk across the bridge but until I get there I'm still in need of a hand to hold. Someone to watch out for me still. Thank you for reading it though, I appreciate it.

We are not always our choices...OR our fears.... You end with hope - a good way to come across

[Angel]

Yes, well someone told me if we do not have hope then what do we have? Thank you for your review.

[Chris]

anytime... take care

[Angel]

The bridge to change is often a difficult one to cross. Something inside needs to finally resolve to make the effort and go for it no matter what.

[Angel]

But how do you know what needs to be changed and what should stay the same?

[/]

For me, that's an abstract question being I don't know your life. I guess you need to examine your life and decide. That's hard, but sometimes necessary.

[Angel]

Hmm.. I like how thoughtful you are. That's new plus sometimes it might be necessary but it could get you hurt so why put yourself in that position?

[/]

That would be a personal matter for you to decide.

[Angel]

Okay, if you had a hard decision to make what would you do to figure out which one you want to choose?

[Angel]

*should not want

The one that would benefit me the most.

[Angel]

Well, thank you for your input. It was much appreciated.
