Transit
The journey’s confusing, we’re fine being lost in transit
Luggage is carried by faithful memory, no need to panic
We pay, with time, to remain fixed to our seats
Bolted to land to which there are named streets
We aren’t drivers of life’s engine
It goes on long after our ending
Transit, it’s the only thing we know
Before and after, that mystery will not go
Transiting on this port, the body patiently grows
The mind is impatient, and it knows
We give into believing, not becoming
It’s hard work to overcome all shortcoming
Everyone holds a ticket, no one knows to where
Only those without ambition will care to dare
About this moment, it has never been in transit
We wouldn’t know, we’ve taken the mind’s gambit
