Underneath the bridge a world holds still

Underneath the bridge, a world holds still,

where echoes of laughter fade against the chill.

Graffiti blooms on the concrete's skin,

tales of secrets carved deep within.


The river rushes, oblivious and bold,

while shadows dance in the stories untold.

Kids above play, their joy fills the air,

yet below in the dark, silence lays bare.
