Sidey’s Weekend Challenge – 22.10.2010: Bridges
Burning Bridges
I burnt the bridges to my past,
Finally and forever,
With the fire in my heart.
No what ifs and no upsets,
Ended for eternity,
Ashes to ashes with no regrets.

I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx

I’ve read it 3 times and I keep feeling it’s different, like the flickering flames, or maybe I keep putting bits of my past into your words. Great offering, thanks.

No use popping back over bridges that don’t lead anywhere but down – might as well burn them. “Ashes to ashes with no regrets.” – love that!

AND forgotten at the same time… no harking back any more. What is done is done and we can’t change anything; we must just accept it and get on with our lives; full steam ahead, lol!
