New Tracks In Search

My ticket punched, the fares been paid,
a train sits waiting, rails now laid

My ticket punched, the past on hold,
a future scorned, the present bold

My ticket punched, the whistle blows,
its light shines distant, truth aglow

My ticket punched, a burning thirst,
a heart to quench—new tracks in search
