Bridge of the Blind
Leif Edling
BRIDGE OF THE BLIND
TAKE ME SOMEWHERE
AWAY TO AN UNKNOWN LAND
AND FROM WHERE I WAS BEFORE
WHAT WOULD I FIND,
IF I OPENED MY EYES?
ONE FOOT THEN ANOTHER
STRAIGHT INTO THE BOTTOMLESS
HERE I STAND
ON THE BRIDGE OF THE BLIND
CAN’T SEE WHERE I’M GOING
OR WHAT I LEAVE BEHIND
ALMOST GOODBYE
ON THE BRIDGE OF THE BLIND
NO SIGN OF SUMMER
ON THE OTHER SIDE
WHAT WOULD I FIND,
IF I OPENED MY EYES?
WILL YOU BE WAITING
ON THE OTHER SIDE?
