RAIL MOON WINE

by Kelly Wright *Aries* - Not entered

I fell in love with a passing train.
I knew his face I knew his name.
The strength of steel I'll never forget.
Wrapped in velvet lining no tears,no regrets.
I felt so cold as the steam warmed my skin.
Pain filled my heart as I watched the end begin.
To have heard I love you would not make things right.
But I could have whispered the same as he rolled out of sight.
I'm not free to ride the rails alone.
I cannot build on what I feel,I'm living the unknown.
So there's a place in my heart where he will be.
Till maybe one day he'll roll right back to me.
