City’s bright lights have faded against the mist,
Stray cats put up their alley fight,
Bored people pass by with heads covered,
Streets gone dark from hidden moonlight.
I made my own boulevard to tread,
While maddened sky poured non-stop,
I smiled on both sides while crowd stared,
To a gullible girl without the umbrella and cap.
Forgetting the feeling while my bones freeze,
Forgetting drops of rain as they traced my face,
Idly I walk alone to neither direction,
To where I’m headed for a downpour chase.
Sweet music echoed through my ears,
While my feet led me to a muddy road,
Faraway from neon lights from where I’ve started,
Now I’m stepping on a field where fairytales are untold.
And finally my path has cleared from fog,
Seeing sky’s tears have finally run dry,
An innocent stare is what I paid to a brook,
Then I skipped my way as if I could fly.
Fireflies surrounded me like countless diamonds,
As I stomped on the onyx water,
An eve’s insanity is what the place has given me,
Gone wild and bewitched, not that it matter.
I warmed myself from the icy chill,
And I sang along with dancing feet,
Invading the place of black-velvety heaven,
As if drowned by its bottomless pit.
From a darkened hour I had bright giggles,
For a shimmering moonlight like a curtain it fell,
People are oblivious from deep empty slumber,
While a lost fairy’s preparing new tales to tell.
