Bridge Over Us

The deep gap we created

filled with stubborn pride
and shattered dreams 

This nightmare
chasm between us

Me over here

and you over there

How do we
re unite 
on the same side?

Find an overpass solution
to save us from ourselves 

There may be
more storied spans
with sexier designs
to bridge our divide

but

give me a sturdy
functional structure anytime
to bring us back together
where we need to be 

Maybe then

we can 
together forever
fill in our gaps
