cold autumn breeze through my blouse,
calm
city lights so bright, until you focus,
they lose it all
nothing is as good as it seems
or so you thought

the wind gets colder in a second
as i open my eyes, big town awakens up
though i hadn't tasted the relief
of a deep sleep tonight

i wonder the number of people awakened at this hour
not one in my neighborhood,appearantly
another reason on the list
here demands me to leave

wind brings dead leaves to my feet
on the balcony
more and more i realize
how lucky i am
for dancing with the deadly

not even a car in sight
the world has lost all the light
i hear a big noise and wonder if its a car
oh wait no, a big storm just went by

its about time i get back in
or i'll catch the cold that i just flinched

i came back in my room
its so freaking warm
i opened the window, closed the door
i dont have the smallest bit of sleep
oh wait, i now do
