A London lamppost

Ebbing away into silence,
The shadows of the dark,
And the milky moonlight,
Dancing its way through the fog,
On the silent streets of London,
A carriage moving away,
And a lamppost standing alone,
Quiet, as if staring at the pale silhouettes,
Clichés echoing through the air,
Formal ‘good nights’ and ‘Nice to meet yous’
Blend in with the night,
And I watch closely though my bedroom window,
As I lay down my self to sleep,
I recall the promises I have to keep,
I sigh and I call out to life,
To wait…and time to stand,
For a moment whence I don’t have to think,
For a moment whence I don’t have to worry,
For one moment when I don’t have to think about the moments that are to come,
Just a single moment, and all the clocks grow cold,
So I may rest and grasp a breath,
And stare silently,
Like the lonely lamppost outside.
