should i write poems

laced with deep metaphors

broken hearts

closing doors


whispered words on the wind

waves beating on the beach

secret loves in the shadows

stars beyond our reach


will you see what i am writing

understand the meaning inside

or scratch your head in wonder

at what i am really trying to hide


i laugh at the confusion

i sometimes cause

the heads that shake

the thoughts that pause


but

isn't that what its all about

you seeing your interpretation

me, i wonder sometimes

if my train ever left the station
