It takes just a word or sight To cry about lonely nights in a room lit by streetlight glow; To cringe at silence soundtracking the evening; To loathe smiles dancing on the walls of your mind or the clink of glasses ringing your absence; To fear the season of youth slipping, falling away like silk-like water off smooth skin; To imagine life not lived.

Lonely Nights
It takes just a word or sight To cry about lonely nights in a room lit by streetlight glow; To cringe at silence soundtracking the evening; To loathe smiles dancing on the walls of your mind or the clink of glasses ringing your absence; To fear the season of youth slipping, falling away like silk-like water off smooth skin; To imagine life not lived.
Written (you guessed it) on a lonely night.
