Bridge to far

A bridge between communities,
between the old and the young,
To be a bridge in such a way
means sometimes, people are going to walk over you!
it can be painful.
Often in youth work, we boast that we are there to serve
To be a bridge.
well guess what
it costs,
not in a angry, kinda, painful way.
But more a matter, statement of fact kinda way
it costs.
