Time dried on the edge of the city
And shrinked into the undying now
So I could finally sniff the scent of freedom
Which rippled all over my shivering body
From one dalliance to another I went
This time with the exuberance of life
And afar I could see my fears
Dissolve at once into the ether
Farewell, I said, I have to leave
To a field of roses and flowers
Long was my stay here
In this cold bitter place
This dawn like no other
As it leaves it stays forever
You hear its dulcet voice
Fuse with the distant clouds
Evanescent was it all
But as I ogled the city once again
I was certain that
Some things do
Last forever.

let all yesterday's be our burial ground for the pavemented city zones of all things bleak: in our reality,
onwards - to that daybreak of a clean slate, upon nature's untamed green: where to next?
like your positivity, more power to you!
thanks for inspiring my little scribbled response,
