Bridge of No Sighs

Coming down to this lost pier
Under the bridge of no sighs 
The bollards not used, no boats moor here 
Back and forth on the river they ply
Carrying tourists, and locals as well
To destinations unknown
I do not envy them, though cannot tell
Which place to I do belong 
This spatial disorientation
Is such an exhausting disorder
Dislodged, I offer frustration
For the ticket to cross your border
I hear the trains clanking buffers
Over the bridge they rush through 
You say there’s no reason to suffer
I would love to agree with you.
