Train

Watching the sun as it sinks into the horizon
I see a train, it reminds me of home and all that I left behind
Troublesome times and the damage that one soul can contain
Amplified by the fact that hurt still remains. unable to shut out for eternity
Peace within, despite the pain that often complains causing strains
on life day to day.  worries now a distant away,
yet not lagging far behind
they'll stay
in mind.
Mindless hours contemplating the world and all the hating
Meeting and shaking, forcing and laughing
Blank faces lost within a crowd of hungry eyes
empty eyes searching for a place worth pausing
Lurking
freedom not in body but soul
I have been released.
Monstrous the fear that once had me caged.
Despair has fled my diminutive frame
i am released not by a distance, but by, a God, an entity far above anything else
a God who's grace and compassion has kept me precious, safe and whole.
I .am. today
