The Angels of the Tracks

For the One I Soon to Wed

By MistelloPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

With sonnets of the mind

Glowing as the sun shines

Two beautiful views in the eyes

To happen in such light

An angel in white

With a scent so sweet

An angel in black

Dressed for a dream complete

Sounds of the screeching rails

As the train approaches

Two on separate sides

How can I make such time

Though my choices are clear

I should have made the attempt

However, one has stayed in my vision

As the other vanished in transition

Coming straight forward is the train

That the angel of white

Has boarded the ride

For one opportunity missed

As the wheels scratch the tracks

To move forward in motion

The angel in black

Still in place

Is the one

I will not miss
