Train

I wake up in the morning just to dare my train again Bound for another journey, against the wind, then nurse my pain I could not say I'm witty, but I am bold to fight the rain I lure myself to thinking that being brave has all the gain I have a frame of rebel mind, for fast train, I always dare Sometimes, I step on my gas too much, I am not even aware Whether I hit or stomp on someone, sometimes, I do not seem to care For, in my mind, there is one thing, I have no more time to spare Sometimes, I run a tough journey, that no one even dares to venture Though, the bound of my destiny is not my own to measure Sometimes, I leave my fate to ripe on the mercy of nature For, life is tough as we know it, but likewise an adventure Sometimes, I run too forward and stead that I don't know if I could come back But what I know is if I must win, I must run fast on my own track Though, no one taught me how to run, and perhaps the rail keeps my own luck Moving constantly is must, otherwise I'd get stuck *Inspired by the song 'This Train' by Joe Bonamassa* May 4, 2023 Joe Bonamassa Inspiration Poetry Contest (4th place) Sponsored by: Robert James Liguori
