Train

86 0 0
                                    

As the cars roll down the highway
The train runs along
A steady pace as the time flows by
And my heart continues to thud

I'm frightened as the car rocks back and forth
And the whistle blows as they bring forth
More green hills and emerald trees
Beautiful lakes that make me yearn for the sea

My music plays on as a half hour passes by
And inspiration begins to fill my mind

I see the way trees meet blue sky
Cotton balls dancing, telling me to fly
Up to then and pick up their dance
Now I want to try, my heart is in a trance

Shaking my head, catching the clouds in a lie
As I lean back my head and let out a sigh

The train rolls under the bridge
The light seeping through, I can never miss
Building pass by all in a blur
As I see petals flying from the sky, waiting their turn

For them to reach the ground
And start a new growth
A new flower to lie beside the train tracks

Rows and rows of fields appear
And the clouds once again paint the sky
The only colours I can see are yellow green and blue
Until I see the flower, and yes I knew

I knew it was poisonous yet living soo free
Its beauty right there is staring at me
As we pass by, it stays in my mind
As on my paper, I begin to write

The little flower on the side of the tracks
Looking so peaceful, but I've tested my limits to the max
Now laying back I still can see
That pretty little flower staring right at me

On the way to Toronto, I continue to  go
Seeing emerald trees and lakes to behold
Still, one thing sticks out in my mind
That little flower, that can never be mine
