Proceed with caution
Read the sign
A long way down
A steep decline
Surely if
We were to fall
To our deaths
That wouldn’t be cool
Hold my hand
We will make it there
Stay close to me
Don’t be scared
We start to cross
That rickety bridge
Starting to shake
Over the abyss
Stay with me
Don’t look down
We will make it
We will not drown
Moving faster
To get away
To reach safety
Keep fear at bay
Almost there
At the end
Nearly made it
Energy spent
Then we hear
The horrible sound
The chords break
From their bound
Gravity pulling
As the bridge falls
I hold you tight
Trying to stall
I won’t let go
Never would I dare
I look in your eyes
That fearful stare
I pull you to the top
On to me
We breathe together
And feel the breeze
Safe at last
To continue on
Forever searching
To us we belong
❤
