if i took you into this madness
of my heart
you would see things
through my terror-filled eyes
cast adrift in an indifferent city
passion's taut screams
taunt me each night
from behind
brick, stucco and drywall
run child!
save yourself
from this madness
and recapture
your innocent  life

mistyrose...thank you for the inspiration.*S* (I was hoping you wouldn't mind the dark path I took with this.)

It's frightening to even think about people living in the city and on the streets. You certainly captured that scene well.
