We fell in time
with the heartbeat of this city
Our eyes blinded
by the bright lights of Times Square
Both of us craving
the sweet summer sun
and the soft suburban stars
of home
But both of us afraid
that we may have found a new home
on the banks of the Hudson river
beneath the red Manhattan moon
Too sweet to slow down
Too quick to ask questions
Too late to build walls
Too soon to take them down
