A New Arrival

[hikarru]

I stand at a bridge
Starring upstream waiting for a new arrival,
I heard something splash behind me!
Am I in danger?
I can’t look behind me….
I might miss my new arrival,
But what if I’m in danger?
I argued with myself until I glanced behind me,
It was just a rock that tumbled into the stream,
I turned back and looked at the stream coming towards me,
I have missed my new arrival,
If only I had not looked behind me.
