broken man
i fell in love with a broken man
i fell in love with a broken man
Heart broken
pieces
shattered
thrown onto broken streets
left to be carried
by the echoes of the trumpet
and the rhythm of the nightly train
that never stops
struggling to find its way back Home
next stop
not known
kind words from strangers offers direction
temporary places
unwelcome stays
offers no Home
the train continues forward
must be on time
no way of looking back
no rest
for shattered hearts
the city that never sleeps
offers still, shares forgiving moments
to rest
to close your eyes
carried by the nightly train
waken by different stops,
different paths
choices
i take each step..
forward
to find the rhythm again
guided
by the echoes of the trumpet
the heartbeat of the nightly train
Broken hearts on broken streets
lives
Still.
