I Am Leaving

I found myself staring out of the window of an Amtrak train, departing NYC and gazing at a series of rivers and tributaries. Despite the muddy coloring of the water, one could consider the surrounding foliage beautiful. I then looked down at my Ipod and noticed the song, I am Leaving by Blue Roses (Laura Groves) was playing. I started to feel a moment come on, in between the song and the geography around me. The train however approached a run down, vacant building covered with uncreative graffiti. Largest of all were the words "Suck it" scrawled across the building in large, red, chicken-scratch letters. The moment was gone.
