From nowhere to somewhere

By Linwe

*Written on the train. I was looking outside and saw a group of annoying teenagers driving their scooters to pollute the air and threatening other people just to look cool*

As the train rides away
The distance grows between us and I
Become more afraid of each day
That is yet to come
Hard to find emotion when
People's faces are looking cumbersome
I search and wish I could see
Love, hate, care, anger or anything
Else that dwells inside of me
While I see those youngsters sit
Indifference being their only expression
I thank
God that I can still be happy
Or feel like shit
But high above them all
I can say I have tasted and do pray
For this emerging force to rise
Instead of fall
My heart being crushed by the sight
Of empty eyes staring at me,
Affecting...none
But I am overcome
By fright
Cause there's pollution in the air
Due to those relentless
Cumbersomes but hopefully
Love will soon lead us
Somewhere
