There he walks, late into the night shadow of city lights.
His head hangs low because he knows he's all alone tonight.
So cold inside, he can do nothing but cry, still no love in sight.
He looks around, not a sound, his lonely soul lost and not to be found.
So tired and torn, wishes he was never born, leaps onto the street and hears a horn.
In a flash, the two clash, the red car throws him afar, now he lies there silent and dead.
Boy what did you do? Cause if you only knew, love was waiting for you at the corner of 1st & 3rd avenue.
Two more minutes was all you needed to find the one in blue that has been searching so long for you.
You left him behind, your soulmate in a bind, without you he is forever blind.
He wanted you, only you, without you, his life is through because only the two of you were meant to be true.
There he walks, late into the night shadow of city lights.
His head hangs low because he knows he's all alone tonight.
So cold inside, he can do nothing but cry, forever without your love in sight.
He looks around, hears a sound, and sees you smiling down from heaven he's found.

I really thought this was a most amazing poem, so sad and beatiful, and im sorry for being cliched but it really is. To be honest this is one of the best pieces that ive ever read, and ill be sure to read your other poems carefully in future
