I sense I have crossed a bridge,

One where construction blocks my way back.

It’s a subtle change, really,

But it means too much to me.

I want to go back

(but do I really?)

Would I have been more cautious

If I truly did not want to cross the bridge:

Of course

I wanted to – I really did.

But now these subtle changes are scaring me

(Will this become a problem?)

I’m being over dramatic - 

It’s not a big deal.

Lots of people have crossed this bridge,

some of my friends have already.

But then again, they expected to.

I did not. (Did I?)

Is this who I am?

Am I the type of person who crosses these bridges?

I suppose so, or else my surroundings lie.

Liers.

I didn’t think it would mean much,

But I sense it:

Just as subtly as one senses

a slight tremor of a car driving over a bridge:

a rumble.

Rumination will be the death of me,

If this walk isn’t already.

(Help?)

No, not yet - 

You don’t need help yet.

When you start crossing bridges more frequently,

however,

you should seek advice.

But you’re okay.

It’s just one bridge.
