A distant streetlight
Seems to call your name
Its flickering
Vibrates the pain
Its angled shadow
Layed to ground
The silence echoes
So very loud.
A deserted street
Patched with rain
An express train
Within the brain
Battered hopes
Forlorn dreams
In gutters move
In thoughtful streams.
A heartbeat flutters
Without a friend
Its noble attempt
To transcend
This bitter pain
Its gnawing teeth
Of tragic loss
This lonely street.
