medievil bridge(Arnold Melleby, 10.18.2017)

stars keep shining
in the distant sky
seemingly out of reach
is that why you can`t
help but feel
small and useless
in this endless
universe
truth is
you can`t leave it
and the only place to grow
is where you find yourself

the desert is hot and dry
there`s a shadow in front of you
stagger behind as best you can
the shadow will take you to a safer place

destroyed by the simple facts of life
guided to a sacret place
but you chose a different way
you chose not to stay

I crossed a medievil bridge
as a long and narrow riverboat
passed underneath
the captain dressed in black
your coffin placed on the front deck
for everyone to see
taking you
to your final place of rest

the shadow in front of you
bares the likeness of me
I am the love that could have been
I am the love that should have been
bringing tears to your eyes
I know it does
changing tides
wouldn`t change a thing
you`re already
gone

I crossed a medievil bridge
as a long and narrow riverboat
passed underneath
the captain dressed in black
your coffin placed on the front deck
for everyone to see
taking you
to your final place of rest

I crossed a medievil bridge
today
