The Bridge

Inside the bridge You suddenly felt calm
Simple passing through the world
& remembered The Man with the Wooden Arm
How hard it must have been?

You saw Yourself walking with no one else
& it scared You
The thought
But Your heart was just asleep that night
No dreams at all

It’s nothing like You ever thought

Why do You break sometimes when You’re alone?
Is it the feeling of heavy loss?
You don’t think about her anymore
But You still lie

Going out
Impossible to breathe
It didn’t hurt
Finding other things
It didn’t feel like anything
