Support

Why do you truss

that lonely road with the twisted lines

across the chasm nobody knows about.

Over jagged rocks and earthen spikes.

It puts its faith in you

to ensure a safe passage.

Cables at full tension

steel bellowing loudly,

but yet you still hold your shape.

The support you provide

great in magnitude

yet unnoticed by many.

Whatever the case,

don’t take it for granted

because after all,

each of us needs a truss

to support life’s bridges.
