train

i find myself waiting
yet i know not what for
a feeling
that there is somewhere to go
someone to see
something to do
like waiting for a train
to take me away
far to a place
where love is the main destination
yet the train must be late
its jumped the tracks
i sit on my bench
surrounded by others yet totally alone
watching them walk by
lovers holding hands
exchanging glances or a secret joke
picture perfect families
i sit in my tattered clothes
wondering what it is i have to see me through
all i have to give is me
but i fear its a ticket
with a price too high for anyone to want to pay
