City Lights At Night
City lights at
night
illuminating the metropolis
A thousand, thousand
city dwellers
Greet the evening
with electricity
Overhead clouds
form lovely patterns
Autos whizz by
While the young walk city streets
In search of excitement
and love
The night has a long way to go
A frail man gazes
from his window
He sees the city
lights
He dreams in his small room
Eyes - hundreds of eyes
Tire and begin to close
The city holds answers
if you search
hard enough
They can be found
The asphalt homeland
awaits morning
As throngs leave the city
leaving behind ashes and pity
