Bridge after Coma

Got this idea after reading Muse's poem "Walking Across Water"

I don't feel awake

The first step

It's the hardest

I am incapable of moving past it

Will you take me across

Disillusioned by decisions 

Fragile, I've broken myself 

Carrying my own cross

Hold my hand

I'm shaky and my legs give in

Understand, I'm not ready 

There's too much hurt within

Halfway there

I feel your strength run through me

The cloak of your embrace

I can taste serendipity in the air 

Is God aware

I'm drowning in my own despair 

Held tight by a mother's hold

Feels so warm yet she's so cold

Stay with me still

Only memories are here to stay

Was a time when you said you'd never go away

Then why am I alone

Mama

This is the bridge that's going to take us home

Why am I afraid that you're going to go alone

Another sleepless night 

Can you hear my cries 

Calling out your name

Building bridges just to numb the pain

I never want to forget your face

Is this my fate

To live on without you 

It was my fault 

he took you away

I'm not too late

Mama, I'm taking the bridge to you now

I'll see you as soon as all my blood pours out 

We'll be together, happy again

   Don't text and drive my friends

"Hold my hand?
I'm shaky and my legs give in
Understand I'm not ready
There's to much hurt within"

That one's my favorite. It's so versatile, and seems like something I would write.
The picture is really beautiful and seem endless.
Good job Kee. It was very well written. :3

Thank you Amanda :3 It does seem endless now that I look at it :D

Mothers are our angels on earth and in heaven. We cry out her name in hope or despair. One owes a mother so much, most of all the will to preserve ourself, body and soul, something for which a mother intercedes forever with God. A powerful write with beautifully crafted verses. Your words speak straight to the soul, Keegan.

TO SAY THIS PIECE is stirring, amazing, enlightening, poignant...is just words....but words are the only vehicle to convey the true definition of emotion rendered from the reading. Tragedy ensues when warnings go unheeded, leaving us bereft in the aftermath of sorrow. You have captured the longing, indelibly...

A strong write. Excellent moving quality to it, a sadness within and a caring, cool pen upon this, nicely done.

Indeed no distractions such as to text when driving. The outcome is terrible to see accidents caused by this. Your poem here is very touching. Lovely music in your Author's Note as well.

So sad...and yet there is an uplifting sense about this as well. I find the fragility of this one quite mesmerizing. There really isn't a lot that I can say about this one, as I found it quite sublime and "lulling" to my current mood. Well done.
