Bus Number 268


Everyday for the last five years

His dedicated routine was the same

Catching Bus number 268 at 9am to be with her

On Bus number 268 at 5pm to return home again



Tuesday was like any other

Though the bus trip home was not the same

Tears fell as he stared vacantly out the window 

He would never be catching Bus number 268 again
