Connections

I alight....
Journey\'s end
Interconnections departed
Platforms now look deserted
Distant shunting echos
As clocks strike the late hour

Swirling steam
Gathers the night....
Across the tracks
Stands a lone figure
More a silhouette
Caught in shadow
Knowingly staring back

I\'m taken
Other moons, beyond
For this it seems
Is like a movie scene
Reminding of an earlier dream
A starring role of emotion, passion
The \'if I met you\' fills my mind

Footsteps awake me from these thoughts
I pull my overcoat tight
My breath rises away with the steam
This stranger now approaches
I feel my heart thudding
A whistle sounds
Hissing and clanking surrounds
I see a smiling face

A voice cuts the atmosphere :

\"I\'m here.....!\"

I can only stare....amazed.
