Under The Street Lights
The last car leaves
the parking lot
headlights head off
into the blackness
I step out from my hiding spot
and stand in the center
letting the rain hit my face
The lights are misty
forever shining on the river
making it glow
as my cheeks are dotted
with speckles of rain
Then the streetlight
turns on
like on of those clap on lights
shining forever on me
It is almost seen
as as glimmer of hope
The world is full
of blissful happiness
more than I have ever known
I'm dacning in the rain
then from the shawdows
there is a figure
and out of the shawdows
steps my man
he sweeps me off
of my feet and kisses me
gently
I love him
but only on my own
