I'm on a train,
  On my way home, thinking to myself,
     But no words come to mind.
Everyone's lost, everybody leaves at least
  Once...sometimes the victim,
     sometimes the initiator.
No pessimism here, I just slip up,
  Once...in a while,
    I think of memories, and you...
Wishing time never went past
  the years that I got to know you
    ...I'm being naive.
Time did stand still, I was just
  Too blind to appreciate it
    Until you were gone...I miss you.
The train's moving on,
  Maybe I should too...but the train has it easy,
    ...you'll ALWAYS be inside of me.

this poem was originally written in August of 1999. It was originally dedicated to my high school friend, Nikia. Looking at it now, it's pretty much a dedication to anyone close to me who i've lost over time(but if you're reading this, Nikia...Plan B is ALWAYS in my heart, Skeeter! xoxoxo)
