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.

The Endless Wait

On the bench beside the railway tracks.
He had turned his back as trains kept passing by..
The moments spent with her going back and forth in his mind.
It’s just the wait is endless never to leave behind.

While the waves crash on the rocks..
Birds flock through the empty sky.
As the little girl runs towards the sunset.
Looking for tiny paws running back to her.
Where only the dusk knows fate never defers.

Getting darker..
She sits sticking her ears to the door.
As starts the never ending downpour..
Just like the day before.
Making the windows shudder..
With each hour echoing louder.
