Burning Bridges
Brian Pack Nov 2010
As another one falls apart
I regret the day I burnt those bridges
Destroying my way to get away
Destroying my way back home

Another one that didn’t work
And now I’m left with nothing more
Than the rubble that was left over
That which I have caused

Relationships fall apart
This I know far too well
All I want is one to work
But instead I burn bridges

Good times run afoul
Now that I have risen up
Make my mark upon this life
Burn that bridge to the ground

Love but only one time works
The lack of results far too great
All I want is to come back to you
But I’ve already burnt that bridge

Now I’m left with empty shells
That I must share with myself
Bricks that lay along the ground
But bridges, they won’t build

Now I lay on my lonely land
With no way in or out
Because I’ve burnt those bridges
Home with you I’ll never see
Hope you enjoy

No Regrets
Brian Pack Nov 2010
I’m sorry
For how this turned out
I tried

You think I lied
But I’ve never been more honest
Think what you want

Winter killed it
As winter tends to do
It too shall pass

Fall is back, ****
Winter will soon follow
We all know what that means

You’re still mad
I thought we were passed all that
Oh yeah, her

It’s not a bad thing… its bad?
I know what I said when I was home
I meant it

I’ll face my judgment
If I don’t give it to myself first
Behold, my reckoning

It was for the best
We needed to grow apart
Not separate

I wanted you
To finally let go of me
For you

Winter’s close
And I just want you to be happy
Mistakes, but not regrets

I promise this
Love may sometimes be lost,
But never forgotten
please let me know what you think.

— The End —
