Rainy Platform Lullaby

On a rainy platform, trains arrive

Like thoughts that show to stay alive

I watch them come, I let them go

A steady lesson, soft and slow

Your face appears in window sheen

Then fades like something in between

No need to chase, no need to fight

Just let it pass through borrowed light

Sing me a rainy platform lullaby

Where goodbyes don’t sting, they sigh

I’ll hold the day with open hands

And let it slip like moving sand

My shoes are damp, my hair a mess

Yet somehow I feel less and less

Afraid of all the empty space

It’s turning into resting place

If I’m still yours in some small way

It’s only as a yesterday

I’ll bless the road, I’ll bless the pain

And board myself like one more train
