Bridge

This bridge I build 
I build to last 
Not of stone or metal 
Deep inside 
Down past 
Thoughts I have willed 

This bridge of many spans 
reaches out to you 
Walk with me......... 
If you want to 

The bridge can be broken 
By thoughts of despair 
By harsh words spoken 

This bridge, 
reaches far in to your heart 
Relentless march through 
Join me too 
If you want too 
What you can be 
Let us start 

So many bridges to build, 
without stone or metal 
made with thoughts willed 

This bridge I have built 
Will not wilt 
For...together 
It will last 
Deep inside 
Down past 

This bridge built for you 
Stronger than stone 
Built on love and affection 
More than flesh and bone 

Bridge running through, 
your heart case 
Open up 
Walk with me too....... 
this open space 

This bridge ............ 
Connecting us 
Cornerstone and truss 
Walk with me, 
if you want to 
what you want to be
