Derailment

Swallowed prayers
Faith abandoned at the station
I step off the train at its final stop
And find my chest hollow
No shadows soft enough 
To cradle a lie

Premium Member Love On the Up-Turn

Blame, I do blame her Her derailment of our love We did crash and burn But finally she rose up We brought love on the up-turn

A Miss diagnosed tragic ailment,
Life strongly suggesting derailment,
Said, “Dis ease among men
Seems not all due to sin,
Let’s pray our death brings pain’s curtailment.”

Crickets

It was not a weather event,
there were no celebrities involved,
besides all our efforts were bent on saving the planet
from global change,
the environment; what's that?

No one mentioned the derailment.
No one knew about the 'controlled' burn,
the explosion, the toxic clouds,
the dead fish in the creek,
the consequences -
all the ticking timebombs.

No one thought to ask:
Hey guys are you okay?

Crickets chirped on.


The Unfinished Woe

To call her tall voice again,
ouch! she drove me crazy
My addiction to lonely couches
Uttering I love in remarkable sense-
In vain,
She sunk deep in her thoughts
Drawing near the deep thoughts
Against spirits of abstain
Christened by the dreams.
Bitter woes came as assassin
Persuading with smile in style-
the end destined in hearts'
As the nos got drained,
In a derailment chained-
As the slain mercy felt done
vanishing like the demons.

Update:  The proof is here.

The Guardian Newspaper has the article today about the researchers who have now proven that the toxic chemicals from the E Palestine Train Derailment reached 16 States!  They proved it with samples of snow and rain dispersal. I have been saying all along that I got sick from the snow and my dog too. My dog later died in a year from the toxin exposure. 

Now it is reported in The Hill and ABC news. Breaking news.

Empty

If there were a way
to make it all disappear
I would find a way to leave
But, alas, I can't stop
this speeding train
from imminent derailment
and I can't start to believe
in all those things 
others speak of
Hope, faith, unconditional love
If I could control this life
I would do just that
and would rise above
all this useless garbage
that doesn't matter
or mean a solitary thing to me
Its all for nothing
Just being wasted
so why can't I just be me?
