Bridges

Of all things, 
She opened my mouth and built a bridge only we knew existed. 
She arranged pillar upon pillar 
Of steel beams. 
I struggled understanding what 
To do with the left over bolts. 
She grabbed my hand 
Taking turns throwing them on the outskirts of where we stood. 
We stood between the beams, 
An incline of sights seldomly seen. 
Afraid of heights she rarely looked down. 
She'd bury her head in my chest 
Very rarely she looked down. 
Spoken words clustered in steel beams 
Without fear of plunging below
