Alone

Left with nowhere to go,

no place to call home.

I travel through the night,

in the streets of New York.

Familiar faces,

forgotten thoughts.

A digression,

from what I wanted to say.

The alcohol sets in,

bleary and broken.

An enigma,

I walk amongst shadows.

A failure,

I have no friends.

Only acquaintances,

and past love interests.

I want to run,

make an escape

from this city.

The twinkling lights,

surrounding my sanity.

I digress,

from another school.

In a different environment,
but a similar place.
