Heat of the night Cold of the day Warm lonely afternoons Under the shades of the tree's Walking alone none in sight Empty roads behold the plight Evening shade makes its way One part of the day The Sun kisses the Sea Removing its shackles from the stars enjoying freedom For the next few hours The moon their friend Parole officer keeping an eye None slip away into the roofless sky Sparkling miles away At arms length still far away Illusion or hope The way you see it ** ** **
