A Bridge Too Far (Poem)

Sometimes it’s a bridge too far,

A chasm too deep,

Or a road too long.

My heart soaks in despair,

And my cries echo on the air.

I don’t want to hurt you,

Nor do I want to desert you,

But some things are just beyond repair.

No matter how you love them,

Or try to mend them.

It’s almost too much to bear,

But it’s not your fault,

You can’t give me what I need.

The space between inches us further apart,

And sometimes,

Love just isn’t enough.
