Sukmawati Komala Poet Dramatic Monologue

In the Same Train

In the same train

You and I
are in the same train
a beautiful train of life
that carry us 
along a challenging journey
full of immortal dreams , and blooming hopes
each one of us 
is given a loveliness seat 
but somehow 
we disregard the comfort
and choose to lean on our exhausted toes
which then pour us
with such a sense of doubt and worry 
then shake the peace away from us
just like a rushing fountain 
that lead away 
our precious moment

why should we
pass into this senselessness

while this beautiful train of life 
is bringing us 
to the land of exhilaration
a land of fondness and delight

why don’t we just smile along our trip
with wishful and elation

a hope 
which I hold closely
in day and night
to be always with you 
in the same train
though i realize
that
we all will alight 
on the different time 
at different halt

however 
I am grateful 
that I have been
in the same train
with you 
in
this beautiful train of life
