The Healing Bridge

I sit curled and hidden under my bridge
My place to think, my comfort dwelling
To calm myself from unsympathetic panic and anxiety

My untouchable place, a place to ponder
Restoring my body, mind and chaotic sensory perception

I remain invisible under my healing bridge
Restoring my psychoanalytical brain process
To a more level orientation

Damage limitation quietly undoing
The blackened anxiety and panic which mocks
Slowly fading to manageable levels

My healing bridge is a lonely figure 
Of which I can identify

Cold stone and clinical metal
A depressing site to some

To me it is like a medicine or magic pill
Which takes my negative poisons away

The bridge will be around long after I have gone
I hope my healing bridge gives comfort to a troubled someone
And can help take their pain away
