*April 6, 2003

The sun is setting
the trip is ending--

I don't want it to.

The train is slowing,
soon I'll be going

home--must I?

Reality is brutal
and this so beautiful--

do I have to go?

I must, I fear,
for, my dear,
is waiting at home
for me to come--

but I still wish in pain
that this time would remain
abreast of strife
and everyday life.
