"Sing your sweet old blues again"


Poem Artwork

Heavy Freight Train

Heavy freight train coming through
From across the continent
In your song I lie content
All alone tonight with you

Coming through my lonesome town
Full of shattered dreams and pain
Sing your sweet old blues again
With us all as we fall down

Heavy freight train shine your light
For the broken for the blind
Sing with those who weep tonight
Solidarity in kind

Other trains in other lands
Sing their brighter songs by day
My old freight train understands
Always night and far away

Here where lonely poets roam
Lost and always far from home

+Steven Curtis Lance

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
