Down at The StationA Poem by Bo LanierWaiting
Down at The Station to catch the 2:05 I
thought I heard your voice calling out my name but
I guess it was just the chatter of the crowd or the
noise inside my brain, my tears begin to fall just
like the Minneapolis rain as I climb up onto the
train. Well
I take a seat next to a window half hoping you'll
step in out of the shadows before the train pulls
out of the station and beg me not to go but I
know leaving you was the right thing to do I just
wish I could convince my heart but that's something
I can't seem to do. I
whisper to goodbye as the train begins to pull out
of the station then again I hear my name, I tell myself
get a hold of yourself but something made me
look up and there you were to my surprise! You
reached out and kissed me taking the seat next
by my side, saying, "I'm sorry baby, please don't
leave me but if you want me to leave you alone
I will but since were already here why don't we
take that second honeymoon we've been talking about"
I just smiled and again the tears began to fall
as the train leaves the station I think maybe, just
maybe you really do love me after all! © 2016 Bo Lanier |
