I caught the train yesterday
sat by the window
looking at houses
wondering who lives
there
people sat
stood
stared
at me, at each other
or at no one at all
time sped by
all a blur
I wondered what these people
were thinking
of work
life
lovers
kids
where did they want to be
not here, I was sure
yet I enjoyed
my time on the train
emptied my mind
about me
wondered about life
love and death
as you do
said the woman beside
me
I looked at her and smiled
did I say that out loud
no she said
but I know
that you know
and that's all
that matters
