Restful (Final Journey)


We've been beside the gulch,
eager to climb a wooded bluff.
Obstacles below and high got in my eye.
But, I could see you by my side.

Right now, I'm pressed to a thick pane
of a steel train gliding flat
through a soothing plane. You,
with your book enjoyed, I, with liquor
I've longed to try, subside.

Rolling, a bump or two reminds you
to look up, catch a blue gleam.
Restful, on a long journey
to the other side. I wonder
if we'll part before destination.
I see a billow, pale sky. No answer.

We've been deeper before.
We've been high, eye to eye.
Nothing in our way now, descending.
I see clearly you here with me now.

Gliding down a lonesome track,
I won't look back. You smile
and I realize the climax satisfies.
Foam on creamy glass dries. Rolling,
I'm reminded of a blue gleam.

Restful on the other side, I wonder
if my destination soon arrives.
Do I dare wonder if any will cry?
One view cherished an entire ride.

original title was going to be "Why Do I Do This?" Yeah, I don't know either. Funny, memory. Sad, inspiration fleeting.
