This poem gets me teary eyed hehe... enjoy!
From The Subway
The subway is a dark place under the ground
Hordes of random people completely surround
I listen as the trains screech on the tracks
And as the doors open with creeks and cracks
People exit in a hurry to go
I’ll be the next one to enjoy the show
I enter the train, and grab a rail
So does another as the train, “Sets sail.”
The person seems nervous, and acts so shy
I also say nothing, but I still wonder why
As the train starts, they stumble and trip
So I grab for their arm, and get a good grip
They look at me, giving a shy smile
I release their arm, standing tall and filed
Through this whole mess, their stop is reached
The doors finally open, no longer breached
As they step out, they stumble again
So I help them up like a loyal friend
I don’t care if it’s someone I don’t know
I’d never just leave them there and be that cold
They get outside, and the train doors close.
We wave goodbye, and the train starts to go
Now in my head, a dream of a few
Is that one day, someone would help me get through.
