THE CITY NIGHT

The city night follows me with unrelenting determition,
shadows comsume me as I walk through artifial light.
Drifting through the dark with a painted face,
searching for a soul that will linger with the dawn.
Coming to life with a cocktail in my grip,
hoping to steal a glance and some feeling.
A vision that exists without sight,
the beautiful thought that dies every morning.
When the stars fade I am alone in my bed,
awaiting the moon once more.
Planning to lose myself again and hope to be found.
