In your dreams

Last night when I looked
out the rail car window
I started to wonder
if what I saw there was  
real or an reflection

They say in the city
when it is dark out side
the street lights go on
and the dark seems darker

Then comes latter day thugs  
Ones without business suites
The only color comes
from lips of broken girls

I always pondered why
they travel the streets
writing their name on the walls
dieing because of art

like I was here.......

My stop came and so I left
My friend was going back with
some guy she once kind of dated
and I back to my dorm room

I looked at my own life
and then I understood
how human we all are

Such is the reality of life in all it's forms, the thugs should not make you afraid..more pitty them..you have an opportunity to step away from anything resembling thuggishness, with hard work at your college..enjoyed the observations...thank you..
