Changing platforms

Today, she did something that she didn't know she will do for the rest of her journey.
Today, she walked down from her usual train carriage,
carrying her suitcase and her favourite book with a cup of hot latte,
and went to the ticket counter.
Instead of riding the same carriage,
she has finally decided to change platforms.

After buying her new ticket to another new adventure,
she turned back and sat at the old spot,
reminiscing all the memories that she had spent in that platforms,
thinking back about the types of people she met during her journey,
all the laughters and giggles that she had shared in that seat of hers,
all the tears and sighs that she had been through in that seat of hers,
and thinking back of all the lessons she learnt throughout her journey.

That journey of hers has been an exciting one,
with lots of ups and downs,
and she finally decided.
Decided to find another type of journeys,
meeting up with new people,
and reconnect back to herself.

As she was sitting at the bench that she once waited for someone,
her old train carriage started its engine,
ready to continue its journey.
She looked at the train leaving,
and she bid farewell to the seat of hers,
which have kept her accompanied and leaving her with memories,
that she vowed to keep well in her heart.

She stood up,
turned her back,
and head to another new platform.
Sat at a new bench,
and now awaiting for the next train,
for the next journey,
for the next new meeting,
and a fresh start.
