Hop on a train,
to cross the bridge,
release all pain
embrace courage.
Wave at the past,
grasp all unknowns,
only times lived,
have answers shown.
Present today,
hug current state,
enjoy moment,
cling to blind fate.
Written future,
currently seen,
Modern ruler,
complex machine.
Goodbye worn days,
steam engine chimes,
dreams offer gains,
shreds prior crimes.
A pen in hand,
paper still blank,
chains left behind,
bring more to thank.
Tomorrow comes,
not set in stone,
each rising sun,
bring wishes blown.
Scars fall behind,
burns every track,
peaceful views find
light heals deep cracks.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
