PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I was going to take the train

its constant motion, bends, and rhythm

soothe me

you know I knew i needed a ride

so I asked

selflessly he complied

he came 2 get me

2 get me

he came

scooped up the other

my beloved brother

we

hit the highway

2 build on the byways

of life

sure wanted him all 2 myself

admittingly selfish

yet so glad that wasn't so

cuz what I heard, saw, and felt

caught the lump in my throat

tears 2 my eyes

whisper with internal smiles

"my soup"

and swallow them back

two of the three men

whom I love with ALL my heart

are here,I can't believe, with me!

they boys, they buildin', they laughin'

they bringin' me

here

I inhale deeply

in case this moment never comes again

they bringin' me

here

and to the train station

what more could I ask for?

I love them both the same

although it's love in a very different way

fam -n- my man

however close

they are separate

MY BROTHER, MY MAN, N ME

we walk 2 the platform

who's luggin' my luggage?

4 once

not me, whew, it's the best feelin'

fi-nal-ly

my train awaits

they still buildin'

I don't want to stop them

my presence halts no words

this was two fluid motions

I reach 2 hug my brother

his arms got me

they always have

beside his right ear on his cheek

I place a kiss

" I love U"

the buildin'

It's cessation is milliseconds brief

just long enough

4 my ears to

take in

"I love U too"

I turn

embrace my man

I thought we kissed on the lips

sandwiched between their conversation

"I love U"

"I love U 2"

back to shootin'the gift

I grab my bags, find a window seat

2 watch them, watch me

but they already bounced

I ain't mad though

cuz they know I'm a'ight, they know I'm safe

CUZ THEY SAW 2 IT, SO U KNOW IT

GOT DONE

no worries

just love

I wished it would stay that way

prayed it could remain that way

I hear the tracks

waitin' 4 recognition

to lull

clickety-clack

I gaze back

2 do an instant replay

close my eyes instill this in my memory

I gotz my journal

I'll write a piece about it

if not today, someday

months pass and that day is now

rememberin', thinkin'

clickety-clack

what would I do

toot-toooot...

what would I ever do

knowing this can exist

what would I ever do

without them

like this

tears fallin' (it's grace)

this night (I'm grateful)

no tension, no drama

just love

the best kind

special and fulfilling

like no other

it can't really be captured here

even in this story like form

IT CANNOT BE

an evening like this

CANNOT BE FORGOTTEN

OR REPLACED

just missed on

and reminisced on





clickety-clack...
