Jun 2013
She sat down at her seat in the train and took a deep breath.
The times spent squandering the daylight in  her lover's arms
was the only iridescent reality she'd ever known.
But even that seems as if only a long fond dream.
She now has to wear sweaters to keep out the cold.
With her headphones playing a soft Bob Dylan tune,
she closed her eyes.
That lump in her throat began to build
and a single
tear rolled down her cheek.
Memories that she was trying to run from hit
her as if all in once.
She held her head in her hands and clenched her teeth.

'Stop this pain.' she thought

'I'm  not going to live someone else's  dreams."

The train didn't  stopped till 5000 miles later.
