Your sirens sang to me
On the blue-black midnight streets
Your shadow danced in mine
And whispered
Follow
In the the alleys I heard your heartbeat
Thrumming to the city pulse
The passing cars your very breath
The street-lamps your
Illumination
City rain and city mist
Stream tear-like down the windows
Skyscrapers, sorrows
Falling down
So softly
I wondered if I loved you
Or if I loved the things we were
Could there be something true
In this metropolis?
Racing, violent, glistening...
We found peace
In the traffic.
Found ourselves in the crowds,
And in each other.
Racing
Violent
Glistening
