the steady rhythmic cadence of this city lulls me to sleep tonight
the pulsing heartbeat of night time sound is my lullaby
with windows open the passing cars and rushing trains create a blanket of soothing sound over my exhausted body

here it's just cold concrete and city skyline
here each bustling moment is serenity to my senses

the air is frigid and crisp
it sweeps through the window and encircles my nostrils as I breathe in its city smell
with each breath I grow closer to drifting away into complete isolation from the world around me

when I awaken I know that a beautiful urban day awaits me
until then...
