Sta.sh
Have you ever driven home
Only to turn off the power
Sit in the silence and
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
I have no love for this place
Or for anyone in it
I sit here now, dreading the inside, in
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
I sit in the dim
As the temperature chills to the frigid outside
As my fingers turn to ice, I silently contemplate in
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
Not a bark to be heard
Nor a rustle of wind
Only the sound of leafless trees reaching to
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
As the seconds count down
And the moon grows higher
They lounge inside, completely unaware
That I wish to sit here forevermore in
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
But nothing lasts forever
I suppose I should go inside
The sun will sometime rise
Or the lamp may sometime die
Leaving the world without
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
So with aching muscles, and a tired heart
I drag myself out
And towards that closed white door
And say goodbye to
The light of the streetlamp on the corner
