Lone Streetlight

Walking the lone sidewalk with one streetlight.

The only sounds being my thoughts 
And the noises of the void

The pale moonlight shines with light
That the street and I lack

The streetlight flickers

I flicker back

The title "Lone streetlight" really drew me in. I am trying to self teach myself how to get better at writing. I think writing poems will help me get the hang of writing more literature. I really hope to see more of your poems and to teach myself using your poems.
