These Streets
These streets are whithered without you
Fragile and cold like my heart
Street lights flicker at the silence
Ready to burn out in your absence
These streets will never live again
The presence of color is hidden
Street signs are no longer meaningful
bent and cracked, no readable labels
These streets are old and lonley
dust fills the cracks in their pavement
Rain steals the paint from the surface
No intention of ever replacing it
Constructive crit and comments would be muchappreciated. Thank you

Nice!!
My favorite line is "rain steals the paint from the surface..." That's a great expression.  |

It was all enjoyable, and I can't think of anything to give as criticism. Great job, Aubrii! Later. |
