You say,
Bridges

Strange… Could be all about timing… The box of matches looks empty… Maybe the bridges were burnt before getting a chance to cross… Still warm, but a limited path before you…
Of course it is also possible that, by some chance, you crossed the bridge, tempted by a moment to hold, someone else sparked some flames to prevent retreat… Either way, the warmth of the radiating heart renders the details of the purpose irrelevant.
-
Does that guarantee me a happy ending?
-
Perhaps… At least until reaching the next bridge…

If a bridge can be built it can always be rebuilt, the only thing preventing it from happening is the willingness to try.
-
Just out of interest, why do you think people are so hesitant to rebuilt? Because they dont want to or because they are too scared? Or any other reason?
-
Most likely they dont want to invest more time and effort because they are afraid of another fire! Once something is destroyed its hard to shake the fear that it could easily happen again. I guess the only real question is how badly do they want whats on the other side.
-
Thats true, makes sense. I guess people evaluate the final result (if the bridge is rebuild) and judge from their perspective, if it was worth it.. Anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts! I love feedback like that, makes me inspired to think and contemplate about future poems. 🙂

I feel the anger
-
A little..
-
the down side of passion
-
Passion and anger are very related in their strength of emotion, isnt it? 🙂
-
yes, both cloud our vision and consume our thoughts and seduce us.
-
Yes. Very much so.

I love the last few lines, very powerful. A new take on bridges for me…

Thanks so much for your kind comment.. 🙂

Bridges, like doors, are wonderful jumping-off points for poets, aren’t they?
Well done.-
Oh my, don’t remind me of that.
