The Subway

Have you ever noticed all the people taking a ride?
How unique each one of us are?

All of us coming and going in life as we know
The couple coming back from a broadway show

The father trying to get home by nine
All the people standing in line

The mom trying to get the kids not to fight
The friends going to the city, to party at night

The differences in our skin
And
Our beliefs within

So much diversity there is to see
That is what the subway represents to me
