China to India: Passing By

January 26, 2014

I move by train,

Staring from the window

To the passing Landscape. 

The cows and their herders, 

In fields of puddles and grain. 

 

I pass towns made of bricks,

Filled with wild dogs in packs, 

Roaming train tracks looking for a meal.

I pass illuminated clouds, 

light by the eastward soothing sun. 

 

I pass by through time,

To my destination.

 I pass by,

Just as the landscape

Rushes by in my window.  

Tunnel out of Shanghai, China 

Tunnel out of Shanghai, China 

My body grows older, 

Traveling through time,

Arriving and departing,

Never on time. 


Just like the current of my movement, 

I watch life pass by, 

As towns blur and faces crowd 

All I can see.

People change, 

Love,  and hate.

I change,

Love and hate.

 

But with time, 

We pass by turmoil and serendipity, 

Realizing we are the very thoughts,

That fuel hate and love. 

We stand still watching, 

Waiting for life, 

This train to 

Pass by.
