Running frantically down a vacant street Dashing through puddles As they splash beneath my feet And squirt from in between my toes Why am I not wearing any shoes I’m in a rush But my destination is a secret my mind has hidden from me I guess it’s been raining for awhile Everything is soaked From the buildings To the streets The cars And even the trees Who leaves hang like her wet hair But it’s finally starting to slow
And what the wilting rain unveils is unnerving
Finally I get a glimpse of my surroundings But the scenery before my eyes.... The street lights Desperately hanging Its last few wires hold on tight But the green is as dim as her eyes On the verge of going out for good Stop signs bent Posters on brick walls Halfway torn down Cars parked randomly The paint faded Covered in scared That seem to reach all the way to her bones Building windows cracked Open signs Fizz,spark and blink
Not sure if this is a dream, or foreshadowing But before I can think It starts to rain
