Travelling – Written June 2001 (Aged 26)

Travelling

goodbye, it’s time to move on
i can see the train
and inside is someone beckoning me
so goodbye to someone
and hello to the new one
the one that is shining like a star
but much nearer, like they are real
but, never go far
goodbye, time to move
because some people are spoilt
and retaliate when they don’t get their own way
well. i am turning my back
because there is someone on the train
and we want to travel together
believe me, i will not be looking back again




James Garratt – June 2001
