streetslights glow above me

lighting up this street when the world isnt

like how my dad was my world

he lit up each day

until one day my knight was replaced with night

they all pitied me, some only saw fright

but they threw condolences my way

never once did they care about what life he lived

the life he brought

but i was his witness

that he once shone

and now, seeing this glow

i know each light ...

The streetlights twinkle in the sky,

Which remind me of that soft little lullaby.

I’m grateful to have heard it

and to have dreamt to it.

I’m grateful that I learnt it

and now sing it to my kids.

My kids who remind me of the lights,

my kids that remind me of the time that

singing and wishing to stars

were just as important as facing the real life.

Nights get cold, but let’s not allow the te...

For some reason,

they feel, warm…

the city lights.

After a long, dragged out day,

criticism,

pessimism,

I just want to go home…ism.

But I don’t.

I sit outside the coffee shop,

a soft breeze caresses me as I wait for my coffee—

a momentary peace I wish would last forever.

But alas,

this day will repeat itself tomorrow,

and the day after that.

So for now,

I’ll enjoy this momentary peace,

as I...

Perhaps it’s the false concept of ‘romance’ that brings us back to the basics of tall city lights and smaller ones—decorated throughout a boring street that suddenly becomes an aesthetic aphrodisiac;

Perhaps it’s the coffee shop where two lovers intertwine their lips for the first time ; or the ice cream shop that hired a young man that makes everyone wait too long in line.

Or the family Italian...

_In a twilit night _

_Stareing down at us _

_Because we are made of fairy dust _

_Seaqueen smile Bright blue eyes _

_We are made of starlight _

_You have survived all the lives _

_To prove your ment to shine tonight _

_So look up and you will see _

Streetlights don’t shine around here

We follow our hearts to our destination

We know we may crash or stumble in the dark

But we’ve learnt to survive any situation

Black shines brightest

Thank God that’s our skin

You’ll spot our brethren in every city you’ve been in

We are like the stars

You can never count us

But they’re reflected in our eyes

Eyes that sing our anthem

Streetlights don’t shine a...

Stretlights are lights i wish not to see

They shine a glow on the thoughts in my

head leaving them out for dead

I wish nor to see streetlights because they interupt my sleep and make me feel lonely...

With a twitch and shutter,

Twinkling lights flicker with life,

The streets ambushed by groups of variety.

The lights pulse with excitement with the dimly lit crowd.

Unknown to the man who stands alone.

Peeling eyes scan the darkness of heads

Scoping for its salvation.

Crimson lingers to his chest,

Breathe dancing in the now flickering light.

He feels it stand behind him,

It grabs his hand re...

Walking home from another bad ending

I tend to overthink things

These past few days have molded and blended

I can’t tell if this is my new song to sing

Do I belong in the world or do I cross over

The street now or down the block?

How do I handle the thing on my shoulder

Fuck, rain clouds pour out like the tears I’ve fought

Looking up, the streetlights show me how vast the sky is

How there alway...
