    TRAIN STATION

    By John Paul G. Villanueva

    Sorrow and sadness


    Whaling in madness
    The weight of the thought I carry
    I could no longer bury

    Dull and lifeless


    The world within me is a mess
    I took a deep breath as I go
    Before I close my eyes and let go

    I awoke in a train, cold and restless


    As I looked around to a sea of emptiness
    Confused and bewildered
    I think and pondered
    The result of the decision
    I set in fruition

    A voice could be overheard,


    Coming from the speaker, word by word
    The voice is clear and precise
    Though I couldn’t comprehend it, once or twice

    Searching for answers I tour,


    The train, so long and obscure
    As I opened the door to the second carriage
    I remembered a memory I thought had vanished

    Fear of being forgotten


    Accused of being rotten
    I wish to be seen and accepted
    For my existence to be validated

    With time all things grow


    Along with the scars and regret, it will show
    To accept that life is painful
    Will free you from the grasp of the imaginary
    To live in reality
    Is to take from others
    To sustain our self for our ultimate desires

    The voice echoed once again


    Asking me a question I couldn’t understand
    As I looked out the window, I see
    A train station in the middle of the sea
    Finally, a question to be answered
    Asking whether to leave and endure
    Or to remain and rupture
    The choice is there, and I must choose
    A chance to solidify my existence or star a new

    It asked me one last time if I’m sure


    To carry the baggage within I bring
    I will endure
    The sounds of the doors opening reverbed
    As I ready myself to pursue
    The life that is waiting for me
    Praying to be true
    One last time I looked at the train
    Destined to go somewhere far away
    As I step out into the light I awoke
    Ready to start another day I hope
