The streets roam on for miles Its pitch black leaving only the flickering street lights to pave the way I am running so fast my breath filling the silence with awful ragged gasps What is behind me? Faster and faster I run the stars twinkling above my head It is so hard to move as the roads and buildings pass in vocational silence I hear a voice so familiar I cease my run and stand lonely on my crossroad It's so familiar to my ears Soon a figure is standing in front of me but her face is cloudy I reach out to touch but she is ghostly cold yet warms me in awful ways She is crying out and I still can't understand her far away voice The woman is gone and I am left running again Running into a light so bright I wake up Rolling over I see the face of my beloved She is smiling as I am gasping for air to fill the hole Soon I whisper softly “So close yet so far away...Why do I run from my soulmate?..”

Night Prowl
The streets roam on for miles Its pitch black leaving only the flickering street lights to pave the way I am running so fast my breath filling the silence with awful ragged gasps What is behind me? Faster and faster I run the stars twinkling above my head It is so hard to move as the roads and buildings pass in vocational silence I hear a voice so familiar I cease my run and stand lonely on my crossroad It's so familiar to my ears Soon a figure is standing in front of me but her face is cloudy I reach out to touch but she is ghostly cold yet warms me in awful ways She is crying out and I still can't understand her far away voice The woman is gone and I am left running again Running into a light so bright I wake up Rolling over I see the face of my beloved She is smiling as I am gasping for air to fill the hole Soon I whisper softly “So close yet so far away...Why do I run from my soulmate?..”
