The Red Rose on the Railway Tracks



 


















The young girl
Of eighteen or nineteen
On the railway station bench
Was talking to someone
Over her smartphone,
while commuters shuffled past her.
She appeared very angry
and agitated.
She said, “You cheat, scoundrel, devil!
You ruined me and now……………….”
She stood up and
Before anyone could stop her
She jumped down to the tracks
Before the upcoming,
Galloping train!
Oh God! Oh dear Lord!
Why should she throw her life
For a devil?
