Faded

The sunset faded away,
Turning from the shades to grey,
Opening into the night,
Of dimly lit sparkling light,
Shadows they creep around,
Undetected and seemingly unfound,
Merging into streets and walls,
Like the surrounding forgotten calls.

Street lights glow afar,
Like a thousand fireflies in a jar,
The twinkling water stream,
Runs into my vivid dream,
And the cold breeze wraps itself around,
And in its grasp I am tightly bound,
A chill to fear, A chill to forget,
That night that seemed like a threat.

Giving up on the tide,
That would have taken me in its glide,
I lie around as pictures swarm,
Memories that were tightly bound,
Placed in a far part of my mind,
Unravel and reveal themselves, all kind.

And as the sunset faded away,
Everything I had to say,
Lay buried underneath my skin,
Lingering and burning within,
And as I wrap up my belongings,
And crave for warmth and longings,
Come out of the shadows and walk me home...
