Fragile legs,
Like bambi.
Champagnes strong
And I'm not.
My dress is torn,
My hearts broken.
Now I.....
Softly step
Through the streets.
Weak and tired,
Lost and unloved.
Heading home, alone,
Again, alone.
But....
I smiled at him,
He laughed at me.
Danced for hours
Without you.
Silence was familiar
In that crowded room.
Thinking....
What did I do?
What do I do?
No one to love
Nothing left to hold.
One hour alone
Would have changed my mind,
But....
The bridge ahead,
I wave goodbye.
I step across,
The final line.
My hair is wet,
My bodys cold.
Can't breathe....
....Dont want to.
