And this one was being stubborn
The embers are still smoldering
But ever so slowly, the flames were put out
The bridge will be completely demolished sooner rather than later
I’ll probably get flack for it
Complete with a demand to rebuild
But that’s not my problem
This one was a long time coming
Distance was needed
For our sanity
For our safety
Complain about the ‘unfairness’ all you want
This was inevitable
No amount apologizing or false promises will change it
The damage was done
And it’s not repairable
They say people can change
But certain people don’t
They’re wired a certain way and change will never come
Not for a lack of trying from others to make the individual understand
But certain people are just set in their ways
So the newest burnt bridge will stay that way
No repairs
No new bridge
No tunnel
No boat for crossing
No mediator for negotiations
A wall with security will be added if necessary
But this one is permanent
In every single possible way
