Training the Heart

This train is not the one I need, 
Though it's warm and inviting, 
It doesn't fit me.
The service I want is indefinitely delayed, 
Though I'm ready and waiting, and I've already paid. 

I stand with my bags, looking down at the track, 
For I've chosen my train and I cannot go back.
Although there'd be others; betters, perhaps,
The promise of maybe keeps me platformed and trapped.
