Once upon a train
a railroad to her thoughts
Chug-a-lug, it did
right through her iron wrought
A fence she thought was solid
years of successful construction
Only it took one moment
buried by catastrophic destruction
Steam kept rolling onward
faster, it seemed to go
and there she lay, alone
across a broken row
At least the stars are bright
a distraction from above
Hiding much of her pain
yet, illuminating her blood
©️Unapologetically Me
Unapologetic
