Love Poem: Big City Backdrop

Big City Backdrop

It’s a big city backdrop and I’m
Buzzing like a burnt out light
Hidden away in this studio again
Fall asleep waiting up for you
But the doorknob sits unturned
And like a match I’m beginning to feel burned.

Color me the Color of your heart
And I’ll fade into the shadows of the ruined streets below

So tell me Sweetheart
When was it that this peaceful dream
Turned into a nightmare
Sirens and gunshots still wake me up as
Frequent as your memories
They cut through my dreams

Color me the Color of your heart
And I’ll fade into the shadows of the ruined streets below
Color me the Color of your heart
And I’ll fade into the shadows of the ruined streets below

Will I find you in the ruined streets below?
