Once upon time!
Once upon time .
It seems as yesterday we would climb to the top
today we wouldn't dare to
It's been just a few years
they roped it off.
The word of the town they are going to fix it up.
I'll believe that when I see it.
That old bridge was my play ground when I young.
How they I wish they would burn it to the ground.
Only 16teen never thought garndpal was just on the other side.I shouldn't of went to the fair.I should of stayed home as I was told.
almost half way across I was able to see his car.
Looking over my shoulder. 3 guys I didn't think anyone was even walking behind me they came out of no where..
It went black, when I woke up I was being held down by one of the guys while the other one was trying to take my clothes off. I remember the one guy was trying to get them to stop.I yelled, over and over the next thing I knew everything was black again. Couldn't tell you how long I was out. When I came to it was dark, raining, I wasn't for sure where I was all I knew I was under one of the bridges by the river bank. I put my clothes on.
Still today I don't know who this guy was that walked behind me till I got to My grandpal and grandmals car when I got into the car he was right there by the door but no one else seen him, but me.He wasn't even wet, he should of been.As hard the rain was coming down. My grandmother said I had been missing for 4 hours. when we got home I had to put all my clothes into a bag. could take a shower till I got to the hospital. They took pictures, asked so many questions. My uncle at the time lived 4 hours away when all this happened. He came in.His wife went to the hospital with me. I had to talk to the cops.I couldn't tell you really was going through my mind.I was in shock. I couldn't walk without someone helping me, my one eye was swell shout, my lip was busted, I had marks all over. That next day my uncle,his boys they all got together went down to the fair. I sat in the car right in the middle of Go-mart packing lot they got one of the boys they circled him the cops were there, the whole town.The boy was beaten right there in day light. They didn't try to hide it.No one did anything. When they got done everyone just walked away left him lay there. I guess he went to the hospital.I don't know. That next day one of our city cops came out to grandmother's my grandmother gave them a bag and told me I had to go away for a while because this was to much for the other kids. I didn't do anything wrong. For 3 and half months I was in this jail for young people.I hated,I guess I should of listen.It was somewhat My fault. I just wanted to go listen to the music with my family. Still today I will not walk across the other bridge .
