Who I was

Blurred, these tracks of memories
Beyond the dreams that I may seek
Lost in windblown sanctity
Of roaring steel on endless plains

Adrift along these boundaries
Singing songs of desperate days
Within my mind…alone…wandering
Seeking that which is not forgotten

This fight to stave off destinations
Where frowning faces paint sad reflections
At every stop along the way
With flashing crossings in broken trust

And still the rumble feeds my heart
With hope that this line will soon end
Remembering me for who I was
And not what I have become…
Inspired by a photo sent to me by my good friend Zahra
