Train Station
My train of thought
Steers off the tracks
No going back
I forgot the starting point
And lost my ending
Trying to remember
Somewhere in the middle
My mind found you
As it always has and will continue to
I repeat the same words
Annoying myself with deja vu
The question of love
And the answer of cluelessness
The question of regret
And the conclusion of its lack
For heartbreak
Is the best thing
That can possibly happen
To an artist
You were the best thing
That could have possibly happened
To me
I like my knowledge surface level
And my emotions bone deep
You preferred to bleed your words
For all the world to see
The conversation stained
You are to blame
Sharing your pain
With a lack of shame
That remains unrivaled
To this day
Your hurt overshadowed
Mine every time
Yet still I stayed
Now two years have passed
I have steered of those tracks
No going back
But my train of thought
Still loves to stop
And ponder you
As I get snapped back
From my window seat
Forced to face reality
I conclude the same old tune
You always seem to sing
Which is that you
Despite all that rains true
My pain and muse
Were the best thing
That could have possibly happened
To me

My first heartbreak is the inspiration for much of my writing, including this piece. I feel that even though he hurt me deeply, I would never change what happened because it taught me so much and gave me so many poems.
