When I think of her #wattys2015

Burnt Bridges

You have not broke me,
Granted you have hurt me,
You have not driven me away,
Granted I wanted to let things cool down,

You have burnt the bridge,
But it is not cinders,
I have also burnt the bridge,
Due to a lack of attention,

I knew you are in pain,
Yet I did nothing,
For I was afraid of hurting you,
Hurting you by doing something,

I didn't know if my action,
Would light the lamp at the end of the tunnel,
Or collapse the tunnel on both ends,
So I did nothing,

I waited,
Hoping you would give a sign,
So I knew how to help,
But the only thing that happened,

Was the fire that burnt the bridge.
