Couple to help me fall asleep
Couple to make me less socially awkward
Couple because it's something to pass the time
To help unwind
Loud people yelling in kingsgate
Then the faint stare of nighttime noises
Dog chains, house keys
Then nothing
City silence
Ambient sounds
Quarter to one
Bikes are closer than the cars
Smoking my last cigarette
The city bows out
A well oiled machine
Inhale, exhale now
