Airports

I've sat in those chairs
Too many times
I've shuffled my feet through
Too many lines 

Hard concrete floors
And far too thin carpet
All marching like drones
As they fall from the parapets 

In too many airports
I've spent too many days
Spent nights roaming corridors
In a bone-tired haze 

Awaiting a journey
That may not or it may
Slow unmoving waits
At the end of long day

We travel for pleasure
For work or for need
We leave behind loved ones
Pray return with true speed
