City Streets 
Category: Writing and Poetry 

City streets late at night
The trolly leaves and sheds her light
Steam rose up from reflecting pools of shimmering light
Two hearts beat as one and love was born in late twightlight
Modern art and lazy sofas
Sumatran coffee and and penny loafers
She stood near my side, I was proud
My heart was beating fast and loud
She was mine on this starry night
Years of lonliness healed at her sight
She squatted down to take a pea
A car drove by, guys shouted with glee
I walked her home and gave her a kiss
I never knew I could feel like this
A time that helped define my life
Gave me character, helped me forget my strife
We walked together on this road for a few more weeks
Splashing in puddles and dispelling our demons
We grinded through the night
Lovers entwined in languid flight
We swam through ecstasy clouds purple and pink
When not by her side, of her I would think
A friend consoled
Advised rejoining my fold
Made a snap decision
To leave this beautiful vision
Gabriella was her name
I look around for her now and then
My heart will never be the same
Without my Russian beauty from San Jose
And her lovely golden mane
