Sixth street at 1 am there are 

several blocks of empty parking spaces

 

parellel to quiet sidewalks 

Street lamps above pools of light 

 

A siren in the distance rises, fades

for victims I don't know; 

a disaster that I'll never hear about

 

Above me,

a plane heads out of town 

small red and green lights flash goodbye 

 

My footsteps have an echo

have an echo

Ten past midnight

The time of creativity strikes her

mind lights like a fire

which has never stopped burning

 

It's been months since

you called

20th, to be exact - I think

 

Light your matches

On the wings of angels fallen

as the sky blazes

Burn yourself against your pain

 

It's been years since

I loved you

7, to be exact - I know

 

Now that I am no

longer running out of time

The fires burning like forges

reigniting on memories

I will never forget
