violet

in my dream i saw the bridge.
where light once danced and we once sat.
young shadows glittering upon the creek,
try to understand
what it is from tomorrow we seek.

will you be in my company,
or away from my face.
will you remember this story
and the childish romance that
took place.

or will the bridge fade from your mind,
just as the sky must change shades.
this name will vanish from your lips,
and the memory will erase.

how i wish it would stay.
how i saw you,
i want to keep you that way.

the bridge!
the bridge, my love,
there i have planted my heart,

it is yours to uproot.
