Ghost Town

TheLittlePoet

Tumbleweed beer cans 

Clanking down empty streets

The city that sleeps 

Till 3 pm the snorings screech 

Walks of shame tip toe 

Past my shadow 

The soft pillows smuggling beer 

breath broken bottles 

cutting at my heels 

Quiet is the air of regretted decisions 

Where is the healing for this 

Town trickled dry of life.

    Hey there, Amazing poem, I wanted to know what "Walks of shame tip toe past my shadow" means

    • TheLittlePoet

      Thank you! I was implying the "walk of shame" from hook ups. (aka. those people who had hook up the night before, walking past me- my shadow).

        You are a wonderful poet, and I love your gilded words, so pensive and so profound. Keep on writing, I'm sure you'll make it far
