Another sleepless night in San Francisco
Another person sings a drery love song
They walk a mile over a thousand streets of gold
Light shining off their new shoes
At one time they were together and now nothing
The song plays on and on
As somewhere in the world she sings too
While glacing out the window of her twelve story building
She steps to the balconey to get a breath of fresh air
Her singing stops
Her heart hardens
And she falls to her knees
He is gone
Left Earth bound for another place
She weeps her final tears and walks inside to sleep
Tonight she is depressed again

Love,
Ladycat

Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.

I'm feeling down myself. This is a nice balm...

Thanks, Ladycat.

Ladycat,

The feelings flow from this poem.  And the
imagery very clearly allows the readerto
see what the characters are doing.  Nice
write...
