Bridge

By Kartikeya Kashiv

I am on a bridge today;  

It is hanging down low.  

The water is cold;  

My feet can touch the flow.  

I don't know if it will hold me,  

Or if I should let go.  

At least I have a bridge to walk;  

I'm not swimming in the flow.  

I will get to the other side,  

Dry me up,  

But first, I should hold the rope.  

It's time for a tide.  

I saw people I know floating away,  

I saw people I didn't pass today.  

But I have to keep on walking

Because i need to be on other side and i am on a bridge today.
