the city buzzes with chaos,
honks and heat pressing in,
but with you beside me,
i forget the world outside.
red lights flicker across your face,
half in shadow, half in light,
i don’t speak,
too lost in how beautiful you are.
you ask if i’m okay,
but i’m caught in this moment,
drowning in you,
in the stillness between us.
the traffic? barely noticed.
the noise? a faint echo.
in your presence,
the world doesn’t matter.

the city buzzes with chaos,
honks and heat pressing in,
but with you beside me,
i forget the world outside.
red lights flicker across your face,
half in shadow, half in light,
i don’t speak,
too lost in how beautiful you are.
you ask if i’m okay,
but i’m caught in this moment,
drowning in you,
in the stillness between us.
the traffic? barely noticed.
the noise? a faint echo.
in your presence,
the world doesn’t matter.
