Where else would you sit calmly
Travelling at speeds of 125 mph
Be here we are facing each other
Drinking coffee
Texting
Reading newspapers
Watching the world pass by
We met on a train many years ago
And to think I nearly missed that train
Our children are only here because
I was able to change platforms quickly
If I had not run so fast I would have not met you
And now I am watching you sleep
The motion of the train has made you drowsy
You are as beautiful and serene
As you were on the first day of our journey
