Metro Phenomenon - Sean Nicholas Savage

The smell of fruit stains the colour of the rain

The window green lush a rush throughout the train

A silent world that you never heard this way

Something thick is in the air today

Heads down swaying like wet palms

Asleep in the morning still dark

A glow invisible a song unsung

And all flex come undone

As the doors slide open

Bottles and glasses raining down

While the streets are screaming

Suddenly hissing waves of magic

I wonder what are the chances

What do they matter anyway?

It’s an emotional happening

A metro phenomenon

To see yourself from afar

In a crowded metro car

Love surrounded

Smiles, laughter without fear

In a city that’s seen so much pain

Hums seize, traffic shivers in the breeze

Spilt milk pours throughout all the streets and trees

In a thud in rhythm purring, roaring, dreaming like a flood

And all flex come undone

Now the years like windows

Row by row above and below

Filled with the golden light of dawn

You hear the sound of babies screaming

I don’t mean to be emo

How can i feel about this though?

Our miscommunication

International relations

As if they all could hear the song

A metro phenomenon
