Poem
The engine roared as from it steam poured Rain drops hissed as the black metal they kissed All filed out as the suited man began to shout One man stood alone Nervous, but never checking his phone A glance back he took, Just one look A glance at another life, but you only get one And here is where his begun He repeated as he climbed aboard The glance back seeming more absurd But still was made And these never fade From the windows dark of night Soon this town will be out of sight His mind wonders away Longing for the beginning of a new day Long ago he paid his fee But still able to see To see a Sunday service A little boys glance with a purpose Shaking his head As if to forget all that was said As the suited man ask for his pass The glance he can’t surpass Memories crash his face Like the icy rain covering this place They are so clear Shooting to the heart of his fear As his body begins to steer They are but a few Such a boy in a church pew -Years later The apologized for kiss As he prayed not to miss The long goodbye Where she began to cry His car door he shuts As on word he struts A lifetime ago A girl he came to know From across the isle He saw her smile Stealing the first glance But never taking a chance Tonight it happened once again He saw his dreams But it wasn’t as it seems It wasn’t a ticket to a new place But sunlight gleaming off her face It wasn’t a new town But something he long ago found So as the rain fell all around, Her door he started to pound
