Lost in the middle

Mono Monday: Middle

Lost on a plateau in empty space
Struggling through dry desert air
Angels and devils know my face
Though from me they flee 

They leave behind a hopeless case
Who lacks both ticket and the fare
For that lost time and place
Where still she waits for me

And I may yet be forgiven

That first day back at work wasn't too bad after all.  Certainly the day goes quickly when you are busy.  I did get time to grab a quick walk at lunchtime where I saw this chap standing achingly still for quite some time.  I have no idea what he was waiting for, or why he was standing alone in the middle of the concourse in this way, looking off into the middle distance.
