The Freight-Train of Time

The freight train of time,
speeding through the years.
Hold on for dear life,
shifting through the gears.

The landscape rolls on,
under a blue sky.
A breath-taking view,
brings tears to the eye.

Loved ones jumping off,
taking hearts along.
With no fare thee well,
Just up and then gone.

This train going where?
Come on if you dare!
