My eyes caught the youth walking along the train tracks
Like I could so easily picture myself
Walking in the moonlight
Walking towards the moon as it sets over city lights
Talking about new feelings
But the framiliar site of houses brings me down
Because for a minute, I was free
I was attached to nothing
The way I always thought I was meant to be
The only comfort I get is that I know it will happen again
Every night if I let it
Maybe next time get a little closer to that moon before it sets again [comments] => 2 [counter] => 301 [topic] => 14 [informant] => the_story_of_the_year [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DreamsandWishes ) Your Poetry Dot Com - A Little Closer

...And tonight I took the same long path on that darkly lit road
My eyes caught the youth walking along the train tracks
Like I could so easily picture myself
Walking in the moonlight
Walking towards the moon as it sets over city lights
Talking about new feelings
But the framiliar site of houses brings me down
Because for a minute, I was free
I was attached to nothing
The way I always thought I was meant to be
The only comfort I get is that I know it will happen again
Every night if I let it
Maybe next time get a little closer to that moon before it sets again
