Book without train

I think, it is going all too fast.

You make your promise, in your words.

I do not think, one moment about it.

A train without a book has a lady.

The lady is occupied by the landscape

outside her window; the door has been changed.

A book has no letters but a writer or author

takes the eye of one universe. I say, you lie.

Nothing is to be blamed by your dedication

while I am having the best nights of my lifetime.

The train goes faster than a man outside her cabin.

You try to change a door but the book rests here.
