Joanne. Standing on a white foot bridge. Can of Red Stripe at her feet. Still. Looking out. The brown murky waters of the River Usk flowing beneath. Sounds of waves softly crashing into each other. Building. Wind flowing through her hair. Joanne leans over the railings of the white walk bridge. Breathing it all in. Coke bottle in her hand. She closes her eyes. The pathetic ruins of the castle in the background. Sunrise ripples on the river face. She takes a large inhale of breath. Emptiness. No one else on the bridge. Sound of the crashing waves getting harder. The wind gently blows on her face. She feels it. She exhales. Opens her eyes. Watches the waves below. The colours of the sunrise wrinkle on the over-lapping waves. She looks up at the sky. Clouds moving. Colours throughout. She gets lost in the sky. Colours merging and increasing. Seeping through the clouds. Creating shadows. She smiles. Sound of the crashing waves getting even harder. Wind getting more fierce. Closes her eyes. Breathes in. Filling her lungs with breath. Leans a little further over the railing. Opens her eyes. Exhales. Stares into the distance. Looks Left over to Friars Walk. Looks Right over to the new built flats. Deep in thought. Giggles. Opens her arms wide out. Wind blows on her skin. Wind blows through her hair. Leans her head back. Breathes. Looks up to the sky again. Gives herself to the wind. Free.
