Bridge: the one others cross to reach each other
You are the reason two people who could not meet, met.
A bridge is not a destination. It is the thing people cross to reach something else, and the traffic rarely stops to thank the span holding it up. That is the first truth of your word: you are the crossing two shores use to find each other. You translate one person to another. You stand where two languages meet and you make them agree. You carry weight that was never yours, and you have grown so used to bearing it that you mistake the load for balance. Old bridges were built where the water ran too deep to wade, at the exact place no one else would span. That is where you live: the impassable middle, the gap everyone needs closed and no one wants to hold. People trust you because you connect rather than choose a side, and that trust is the quiet tension strung through your body. To be a Bridge right now is to be needed in a way that can feel like being used, and to notice only late, when the crossing is done and both shores have emptied. You are the reason two people who could not meet, met. But a bridge is allowed to ask who crosses back for it. Is this actually your word? Maybe not.

Underneath bridge, the reading most often finds the Mirror rhythm, the pattern moving under the behavior.
