i sit here,
watching the
darkness, as it
swallows the
light of the day.

i sit here,
while the
moon climbs
its way up to
the dark sky,
and settles
itself, on the
high chair of
clouds in the
sky.

i sit here,
while the
chilly wind
hugs me,
and takes
my thoughts
with them.

i sit here,
waiting for
something
that will
never come.

i sit here,
out in the
moonlit city,
gazing up at
the stars.

the stars,
that gleam
with hope.

i sit here,
watching
stars that
gleam with
hope and
desire.
