A fleeting moment
In the heart of the bustling city, a crowded train rolls
Through tunnels and over tracks, each passenger plays their roles
Among the throngs of tired souls, two strangers find their fate
A fleeting moment shared in time, before it's all too late

The train car is a symphony of sights and sounds and smells
The clatter of the wheels on tracks, the ringing of the bells
The rustle of the newspapers, the hum of conversation
Each passenger lost in thoughts of work, or home, or relaxation

And in the midst of all this chaos, two strangers catch a glance
Their eyes meet for a second, and in that fleeting dance
A spark ignites between them, a connection pure and true
A moment shared in silence, before the train is through

One is a weary businessman, his suit impeccable and neat
His eyes are tired, his shoulders slumped, his shoes polished to a sheen
He stares out the window as the city passes by
Lost in thoughts of meetings, deadlines, and the endless corporate lie

The other is a student, with books piled high in her arms
Her hair is tousled, her sneakers scuffed, her smile full of charm
She fidgets in her seat, her mind filled with dreams and schemes
Of love and friendship, adventure, and the pursuit of all her dreams

They sit in silence...
