A Bridge Between Two People

— a few warm words

A bridge is an artificial passage over a gorge or above a river A bridge can be a direct look a few warm words between two people

A bridge may be what’s needed from you to me to make the magic happen A connection built with words can be what we need to move on We know that a bridge is something solid something permanent and long lasting To speak honest words can build a bridge between you and me words that can mean a future for what we have together

Translated from Norwegian, from the collection of poems «Hjartet blir aldri fullt» (The Heart Never Gets Full), Fiksjonsforlaget©2017.
