City Lights
The lights of the earth, outshine the heavens
Glimmering beauty, breathtakingly bright
Skyscrapers, line the nights sky like a dream
Their electricity, blurs out the stars
Man-made, using tools taken from the earth
Functioning, to bring light from the darkness
Safety, from those lurking in the shadows
The city lights, bring warmth into our hearts
I still remember, the day’s way back when
The lights were my solitude, my freedom
They’d lead me to a place, away from home
To begin afresh, to begin anew
Where fear could no longer consume me whole
They protect me, forever, they are my home.
