City Lights Shining
City lights shining
at night
lead us to believe
that the ghosts of the past
will fade into shadow
Lives lived on the edge
lead to dreams
which spin off into
rid and colorful fantasys
Our eyes
see the lights
and our spirits
are moved by
the crystalline illusions
which
have followed
us
into the hidden corners
of our lives
Secret hidden secrets
revealed
When the curtain falls
those lights will fade
But for now
Revel in the sight
of the metropolis
