Together Again 1

Towards the light
Towards the place so bright
Silence overwhelmed the city
Ears activated to listen so intently…

A man stood on the building’s top
Where all he could see was the heavy fog
As well as the mist across the city’s valley
That flew towards the alley

He stood there with intent eyes
And tears across his blind mind
Yes…He thought he was blind
For the things he did without using his mind

He waited and hoped for the mist to go away
And the sun to be displayed right away
He waited and hoped for the fog to go away
For all he wanted was to feel the beauty of the sunlight’s display

Towards the light
Towards the place so bright
Silence overwhelmed the city
Ears activated to listen so intently…

Suddenly, the man closed his eyes
As a soft breeze poked his thighs
Gently, it caressed his hair
Slowly, it cooled his glare

The breeze turned back
As it looked at the man’s sad track
That was once left by his mischievous acts
Splattering tears onto the harsh facts

The man opened his eyes
As he listened to the breeze’s say
“ I shall carry your salute on board
As I take it to the one person you’ve loved
As I tell her what you feel
Hoping your burns shall heal…”
