All I can say is WOW! Beautiful and powerful poem Larry. I can relate to what you have written here. For me too, there really is, "No bridge strong or long enough. To connect the sides together again." Sometimes it just goes like that. Not everything can be mended. My story went a similiar direction, except at death there was "a whisper"…

My story went a similiar direction, except at death there was "a whisper", but it took till the end, my father's last words he spoke was of love. My story title would be, You are the one who taught me to believe the shame.
Julie, thank you for your comment. I am glad there was love at the end of your dad’s life. There was for us, too, but over our almost fifty years inhabiting the same dimension, we rarely stayed on the same side of the canyon for very long.
