Bridges Burn by: Rob Paquin Burnt a million bridges Of the million bridges that I've built I watch the flames consume them Without one hint of guilt. I am simply who I am The same as I've ever been And if you can't understand me now Then perhaps you never did...See More »
Though I am BlessedI think I'd be better of dead. The problem is...., the people that depend on me would be so much worse off.... It's a sticky wicket when I stop and think about it. Life is unfair. It's certainly been unkind to me. I've tried to be kind to almost...See More »
