The Train Crossing

High above the valleys ridge
A lonely track across the bridge
A bridge of angry pain and sorrow
Where trains will pass into tomorrow
 
Half way across, a spectacular view
A lifetime of mistakes I now undo
Underneath the bright sunlight
Regrets laid down and kissed good night
 
Relaxing in the refreshing air
Into the eternal abyss I now stare
That final moment of peace and clarity
Internal forgiveness and self therapy
 
My ears against the cold train tracks  
An introspection I can't turn back
Silence echoes, I feel vibrations
Anticipation of great expectations
 
Mistakes I've made, I am to blame
Bury my sorrows and my shame
Answers hidden within this train  
Suicidal wreckage ends my pain
