MEET ME ON THE BRIDGE
When I look at you on this bridge,
I see you,
and
I see me.
We share the same beginning,
The same end.
We share the same air,
The same earth.
We stand together on this bridge,
Free of our past.
On each bank,
People water the seeds of division.
Choosing to grow the pain of our future selves,
Over the abundant harvest of love.
Respectful of our ancestors,
We dream a new dream.
All with equal voice,
Each listening deeply.
Open to the discomfort, born of our differences
Of our uniqueness.
Open to the possibilities of a future not yet imagined.
Open to each other,
Open to oneness.
