Abandoned

Memories in monochrome, raw and real

tasting the steam in my throat

Platforms awash with tears that they steal

the longing lingers on still. . .



A child’s despair in a world so tall

knowing she was out of my reach

Time can’t diminish the echoes of all

those carriages pulling away.

  1. "Raw and real" completely captures this, a great poem about something so moving. x
