The River has crossed the Bridge!!



There she stood as if life had come to an end
She had lost all, she felt beneath her no land

Was it the truth that had hurt her the most
Or was it the trust that had been lost

It had all never been a cake  walk for her
The liveliness  had evaded which was so dear

The will to freedom had long forgone
The happiness had been so very bygone

She had given up everything for him
Everything had turned so very dim

He stood there asking for forgiveness
The river had crossed the bridge no less

She had nothing to give him
Not even sympathy all but grim
