Love Poem: Beautiful City

Beautiful City

Just when there was good reason to travel no more
Just when it was opportune to turn and go back
Just when there was a good chance to give up and give in
I saw you and approached a city of no lack

Your lights are all on so colorful and bright
Your buildings so tall, your libraries so deep
Your streets are all clean and lead me throughout
Straight to your heart where I wish for no sleep

I feel so alive since I’ve breathed in your air
I feel so free and comfortable and new
I feel like I’ve known your gates for so long
That home feels like that special place with you
