Think Twice

Hour Nine Dansa form

Think Twice before you burn the bridge
or one must learn to swim
in a stalemate none can win
unless the slights one acknowledge
for a new start to begin
before you burn the bridge.

Think Twice before you burn the bridge
or fashion yourself a boat
and sail back to where hope does float
before you burn that bridge.

Think Twice before you burn the bridge
For there’s no traveling to the past
Time moves forward with no room for ash
when you burn that bridge.
