Abducted On the Bridge

My spirit has been weeping for days Yearning for a quiet place to stay To hear strong words of wisdom That will empower and nurture my wounded soul The night's are not silent and the days are rambunctious and noisy people wandering up and down the treacherous bridge faces as hard as ice and clenched fists positioned to fight Nature is crying from within and the tempestuous wind is bellowing The unapologetic moon peers deeply into my injured soul unraveling the sordid mystery and radiating a furious energy I am feeling sad but not confused I am kindled by own fire parched from within and something stronger than I is beckoning to come in I watched the unruly crowd march about in droves waiting for the command to execute a devious demand I am locked down in deep sorrows nothing amuses me I am stifled by the negative energy around me Cars and trucks going in and out Buses and trailers blocking the roads and people pretending to be working but walking about spreading toxic energy in the atmosphere I escaped onto the lonely bridge watching the moon burying itself under the thick night cloud and its glares disappears without echoing a sound The planet slowly swept over me and without warning something powerful abducted me.

Very creative and deep. Like a poetic sci-fi movie that leaves us hanging and wanting more at the end.
