Love Poem: Streets

Streets

Let’s run through the city 
Late at night when it’s empty 
We can focus on us and
Forget about the morning 

Warm up the freezing winds by 
Screaming about all of your anxieties. 
I’ll shout out all of my problems to 
Release the tension in the frigid air

We’ll play ring around the Rosie 
Under the bright city streetlights. 
We’ll fall down on our asses and 
Laugh about all of our insecurities 

Let’s jump up and down like kids and
Use our outside voices to wake up everyone.
We’ll start yelling at the top of our lungs 
As the sun starts to rise.

If we live like there’s no tomorrow,
I want you to hold me until the end.
If the world ends up crashing together 
Be mine until it’s all over.
