To get her attention undivided,
I misspelled her name in the snow,
waving to no avail from a blizzard below,
firing a flare as a signal
to aggravate her ominous karma,
waiting for fate over feigned mistakes.
I was there to give free advice,
explaining it was better off with me
than saying goodbye.
I resigned to self-destruction
under a bridge of forgiveness.
