South Bound

South Bound

 

I’m waiting on a sudden change of heart,

For that left turn stab,

Cutting gravel, hard throttle-

Change of heart.

 

I’m waiting,

For a screaming voice

Echoing through the station

Above the deisel moaning

Wait! Please! Stop!

 

I’m praying for a frantic,

Nick of time motion,

 in my direction.

 

I am praying … and… the moment is passing

 

And even though i am

the last one on

she’s not coming

she’s not coming

She’s Not coming.

 

I’m already gone.
