Scintillating streetlights and the shiny stella The twain came to light dazzling Down the horizon Shone sapphire moonlight Cascading its reflection Citylights looked delightful & frail Long twirling ribbons of luminescence Flashed the air with fire Filled me with solace, lustre & grace The picturesque seemed to be a fantasy That would go on to a beautiful destiny.
The city lights shine down below, Like the stars do there above, One flickers, One twinkles, I close my eyes and make a wish, Darkness eats the city down, A pale black sky gawks at me, Someone whispers, He's not coming back.
