In the City

In the city
I feel so small,
Looking around at the buildings,
So slender and tall.

Ouch, the noise is overwhelming;
So loud in my ears;
I fear they may explode
And bring me to tears.

The streets are tired 
They begin to break,
Soon the bridges
Will quiver and shake.

As day day turns to night
The lights begin their sweet dance,
Oh, what a beautiful sight.
