Bridges Burning

(Written to a tune)

I prayed for you last night.

Not to hurt you.
Not to help me.
Not to change you or to change me.

I prayed for nothingness.

For space between us.
For peaceful silence.
For understanding in the quiet.

I prayed for us last night.

For your happiness.
For my freedom.
For a way to face our demons.
_

I prayed for fire.
I prayed for ash.
I prayed for bridges burning fast.

I prayed for answers.
I prayed for peace.
I prayed for swift and sweet release.
