Bridge of Sighs

The Bridge of Sighs in Venice.  Built in the 17th century, there are many theories as to why this is called the bridge of sighs.  Many believe that if a couple kisses while underneath the Bridge of Sighs the couple will enjoy eternal love and "live happily ever after."  Most believe, however, that as the bridge connects the palace, where trials would take place and judgment passed, and the prison that this is called the Bridge of Sighs because of the prisoners who, upon being escorted to the neighboring prison, would sigh as they caught their last glimpse of the outside world before spending the rest of their days within the dark dungeons of their prison cell.

Heaven's Gate

...



I love you he says,
How could he I wonder
I loveyou he says
You can't I tell him




You are my light,
you are my angel
You saved me from the
darkness of the world.
You were the love of my life.
How could you blow out my light?
You stole my love away.
That dark and evil day,
the day you stole your life
and ran with it to heaven's gate
 
 
 
 

Pleading Love


The past few weeks,
have been filled with nothing,
nothing but thoughts of you.
I don't understand why,
after all of this time,
I haven't found someone new.
A various few
have come and gone,
and they took with me their care,
But to this day
I've found no one
with whom my heart, I'll share.
I wish for this
my only wish
if I could turn back time,
That I would go
and have my goodbye,
is that a lover's crime?
I can't believe,
I won't see you again,
With my heart and soul broken,
I will never know
how much you cared
beyond what you had spoken.
If I could see you
one last time,
I'd show you, how I'd pray
I would get down
upon my knees
and beg with you to stay.
