Bus Stop Of Life
I stood at a bus stop in the rain, without an umbrella
as the wind tossed around my hair and emotions,
each bus passing offered comfort and warmth
but I realized they were just like the men in my life
short term security, always travelling in the wrong direction
But he Cries as he passes by
Take this journey with me
I to am lost to where it leads
But we can make it a happy ending
Don't stand there waiting alone
Help me along my way
Together we can find the right bus
And maybe love, somewhere on the way
So join me now grab hold
Leaving this stop in the distance
Author notes
I sometimes wonder if people realize that we are all on a separate journey, If we are lucky we will find a companion, But we don't need to look. The right one always justs comes alone, Lets just hope you remembered to get on board,

Good philosophy of life that we are on a journey with or without companions, but we have to keep travelling..It is so true that the journey of life never stays still for very long. It is getting a busier world we are living in..we may have a companion as we travel,but irregardless, we have to keep pace with the traffic....A thoughtful poem! -

Wonderful thoughts conveyed here, love the metaphors. I agree I think love is much better when your not looking and as it undfolds and the realization hits. Wow what a set of emotions it releases. Great write.
