He who was there but could not be there

Have you ever got a ticket,
offering you to sit on a train travelling to a place where you weren't told, and then
what you did when you received the ticket was smiling at the person who gave it to you, and that
the person was going to board the same train with you, and you
did not accept the offer nor reject it, you were suspending the reply, and he/she
waited for a while, and then boarded the train first, and you
were still staring over the tracks, narrowing into the horizon, and you
kept wondering where the trail will take you to, you wished so much to know, yet you
stood there, not wanting to show any commitment to the journey, and then
the train honked its bell, signalling for take off, and you
still there hoping that you were at the end of the trail, so that you can decide if you should have boarded it, but before
you realize, the train has moved, yet you
did not make any effort to stop it, you were strolling in the station, and until
the next train came, you jumped into it happily, alone and still not knowing where the next train goes, but then
you thought that it's time to go, you don't want to be the last, and along
the journey you meet more and more passengers, each stranger crossed paths in your life, and you
thought that life is such a mystery, but when
you saw the picture of the person who gave you the first ticket reaching a place where you had always wanted to go, and you
still sitting on the train travelling to somewhere you are not sure of, will you
begin to feel anxious, feel regret, and feel helpless?

I missed the ticket to the first train, sat on a random train bringing me here, and going to somewhere I don't know.



"Life's a mystery. It unfolds to any color, but does it paint the picture in your heart?"
