Train For Two
I caught reflections
on a train
staring back from window panes
I was there
looking too
on a train
Me and you
A man in front
We had to laugh
We made a short, Illicit Rap
On a train
They fell in love
He the Mexican
her the dove
Their only touch
a shoulder space
so light the bond of skinless taste
His wife is ill
he feels alone
on this train
he finds a home
No names or speak
no kissing deep
No Holidays or candy sweet
Just on a train
Just enough
Traveling quiet -
tracks of love
No proof of shame
No lovers game
no come or go or lonely pain
I saw reflections
me and you
we had to laugh
our train for two
