streetlight by my side
sees
streetlight by my side
bleeds
streetlight by my side
grieves
streetlight by my side
cries
streetlight by my side
lies
streetlight by my side
tries
streetlight by my side
leaves

the whites in my eyes die
and I am swallowed by the memories
of that lost streetlight

Streetlight Road
Diesel Feb 2021
By midnight shine of streetlight glow,
On streetlight road fell citrus snow:
The chalky streams and powdered tides;
The tangy shores now come alive:
And to ignite the ember'd brook,
A cloudless clime so tender hook'd.

The night of sweet persimmon air,
Of quiet trees in quiet flare,
Instead of cold, white, winter blaze
My sleepless night soak'd auburn haze;
And sleep made be the dreamy flight,
The streetlight road ran just alike.

And this for me the lunar blue?
Some felon crime of citrine hues:
A nameless joy abstracts the heart,
Serene it is and set apart;
On streetlight road I met a truth:
And seamless be its natured proof.
