SOLITUDE PROMENADE

Updated: Nov 6, 2018



City lights.

Empty Promenade.

Lingering hallway.

Midnight runaway.


Meet me there

under the pouring November rain

As city lights glazing through my tears

Cause I don't have all the time I wish I had

Standing outside your hallway

Whispering my wishful prayers

next to the Promenade

Wishing you'd see me somehow

I wait, all the while

my heart is in war with my mind

What will it be if I stay the night?

Bridge of hesitation

seem to become longer and longer to cross

All the what if and scenarios playing along

My mind takes me

to the last midnight train

While fate has another say

And I'd always be the one

who repeat their own mistakes again and again

I don't wanna cry on my way back

But fate has its way

to slap me on the face

for all the sins I've done

Tell me my runaway's not a waste of time

But as always, I end up alone

Crying on my plane home

Tasting the familiar bitterness

Leaving my heart in your layover

Wishing you'd hear the words I've wrote


-a.n.l.
