Relationship

Don't burn the bridge,
just for kicks...
because you never know
if you'll ever need it's help
to get across!
When the river rises up
and the mad tide shifts
the boundaries around.
The water moves the unforeseen,
as it's strength pushes you down.
Damage will always have a cost
you can't account for...
like a soldier,
who can't number the lost,
in the midst of war!
Aloofness is a fool's misperception
of their innocence
and those who live like that
are apt to destroy union.
It's not alright, to put someone down
for the game of it,
lest you forget that embers spread,
from the flame of it.
So, I'll tell you...
those who claim
you want second chances,
what to do.
Apologize to those you've hurt,
for being an obnoxious fool!
Stop excusing yourself,
saying you didn't know
and just do what you should do!
Make the choice, to use your voice,
rebuilding the bridge,
maintaining the bridge,
loving the bridge,
and thanking the bridge,
as long as you live...
because a bridge
cannot rebuild itself;
you must take the time
to make it right,
lest you wind up in hell!
Gossipers, liars, slanderers, revilers,
will not go to Heaven!
You're not a Christian,
if you live like this,
leaving your heart unrepentant!
