As we come across rivers
rough, easy, or deadly streams
All we can really do is shiver
Because nothing is what it seems

However you decide to cross
let the wind whisper in your ears
Look down at the soft green moss
stop your senses from your fears

It doesn't matter who you are
The heart Bridge doesn't discriminate
Makes you feel like a shining star
But may lead you to unstable fates

The mountain tops we can't see
Will be a tough precarious climb
at the top is where we all want to be
Going hastily, forgetting the leisure time

Why not the easy slow pace
Observe and listen all around
Catch all the surrounding faces
Capture everything that makes a sound

The Heart Bridge is tough to cross
You'll hear words of kindness
You'll feel like nothings at loss
After you cross you'll feel timeless
