He walked out of the bar, studiously.
He is walking jibberish,
not so good at math.
Reaching out his ticket for
a shining golden cab.

The streets growl as he walks
completely infatuated, yet apprehensive..
He steps aboard a memory that came to him,
too clearly, he was afraid it may not be real.
The intuitive ex-girlfriend with
a scar right above her left breast.
He never asked for the story,
he bathed in the silence of the spider
that sat down beside her.
Spun a web of lonliness and
crawled away.

He awakens to a cold and desolate world,
one where her eyes don't dare to open and see.
Echo all his lonliness, she speaks from the sky.
In the wind her light still radiates,
In him the stench of the street still lingers
in between the smell of her neck against his lips.
