HAPPY NEW YEAR

HAPPY NEW YEAR

IMAGINE THE SCENE
if you will,
woman sitting, a train station,
reading these lines,
A moment of stepping back in time,
the morning was yesterday,
but it could have been today,
who knows, who cares, its all the same,
time waits for no one,
no one waits for me,
single tear drop, mixing with the rain
anguish, pain, soul weary,
tired, so very tired.
another day another month another year,
12 o'clock chimed, with New Year cheer.
yet sitting here, a train station platform,
reading these lines, I am putting here.
is this the final curtain call ?,
a moment of pause,
a deep ridden sigh.
Stand, do I jump, or stay,
the train is coming near,
Happy New YEAR,
I am still here.
suicide is painless, it's the living I fear.
