There is no barrier, just belief
You cannot buy a ticket
The man who smiles back at you
From the window wears a mirror
——-
But her smile is better than yours
——-
To travel on this train
You have to believe you can
You have to believe in trains
You have to believe…
——-
That the train is greater than your shoes
——-
But not in fantasy
And not in make-believe
And not in anything
Which others tell you
——-
For the short slope is for your bare feet alone
——-
It’s midwinter and the train is coming
The train is always coming
The train is arriving now
The train…is
——-
Waiting on platform One
——-
