MY LAST TRAIN

My family dropped me off in a big train station
my mom was crying like a fool
she could not stand
my brothers took her away from me
i didn't understand why
and none wanted to tell me why
why they were sad about me
I was really afraid
when I asked my dad why
he turned his head away
then he wiped his eyes
and said nothing...
my son don't care
you're a strong man
in that station
some workers were wearing white
and others blue
some smiled others didn't care
I was waiting in that weird station
all other passengers were children
waiting on a plastic seats
in that night
their small silhouettes were barely recognized
just their giggles
were heard from time to time
my dad told me
that the train would come that night
to pick us up
at the midnight
a cold winter breeze touched my head skin
I covered it with my sport hat
my oncle bought me
he treated me like a champion
but in that station
I felt so lonely
I was afraid
my mom's crying image still in my head
even if the other children were playing and laughing
I wanted to play with them
I start to get colder
I was starring at a huge Eucalyptus tree
suddenly its shadow start to move
there was a light coming from far
from a tunnel near that station
I saw my train coming
it whistled three times
the railroad conductor seemed happy
fast it arrived
nice train..
then stopped
door opened
this train was weird
just children inside
like me
they came there without their parents
but they were happy and
all along our journey
my fear was swept away
it stopped many times that night
in every city station
and again other children rode amazingly
when  all people were sleeping in peace
this is my letter to you
how are people there
tell my mom;
' i'm ok
Mom one day we'll meet for eternity
you would see light in that dark tunnel
then Listen to three whistles
before we'll meet for eternity
we meet in such beauty
be happy...god bless you '
Letter posted from heaven
from a child
dead from a cancer
