A Grieving Traveler

I sat in a train again Without you... I sat with pain again Without you.. I wish you were there I wish to get back your stare I wish to share some words How I wished to look out of the window the same way as yesterday.. This journey that I start again Without you... This journey that I pause more often Without you... As there is no one to put a hand on My shoulder of disdain.. As there is no one to just make a  Harmless gesture of being insane.. How I wished to sip that cup of tea with a relentless life beyond the sea waiting to be free.. *Dedicated to my mom as she shares her feeling of loneliness after my dad passed away last year. They both used to love traveling together... * picture courtesy the author while she captures this on her train ride to  Carlisle, PA.

Gone

What Happened?
I fell down and hurt my knee.
Are you okay?
I think there’s a wound but no one can see.
What are you thinking?
Well you are the one talking.
Why do you say that?
Cause you are on my mind but why can’t I find.
Just let me go..
Not yet, though now is the time you may know.
There’s nothing you can change..
No one’s life undergoes an interchange.
This is you..
And this is you too.
There can be no better clue.
Someone will be gone too soon.
While someone will still be covering for you.
Are you getting quieter?
Why can’t I hear you any longer?
What happened?
Nothing that will cease..
Nothing that will pretend to please..
Nothing yet an honest appease.
While you keep walking down the same road..
Figuring out what the trees told..
Were slightly different than the last time.
