Night Walker's Song

By shomi

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Night Walker’s SongVisions of angels risewhen the smoke gets in my headthe fences are all painted whiteand the neon signs lie deadin  moonshine cloudswalking down the empty streets the silence feels so goodthe beggars end their daily roundthere’s a fireplace burning woodwhere they lie.And I just wonderif the black in the nightwill turn to greenwhen the crowsraise their heads and crytaking moonlightfor the days coming in.The corner store has gone to sleepthe cars have turned the bendto places they have never been new places to defendtill the day.
