Long Story Short

No empathy, but scorn, cause I am not
The one that meets the eligible entry
Your government won’t like the fact I’ve got
A lifetime story short which seems eccentric
It takes me to the underground train
That goes encircled in perpetual motion 
One stop invites to make a change one day
I travel fast to see the roaring ocean
And when I’m there, it splashes in my face
The foam dissolves, the waves get high like never 
I’m stepping back, and running water licks my trace
In a split second it will be wiped out forever.
