Standing on the Edge of a Dream

Standing on the edge of a dream
Looking over this vast expanse of
City lights,
Winking and blinking
Flirting with the midnight sky

Staring through the panes
As rain runs down the window's
Foggy face
Like teardrops I can't wipe away

Standing on the edge of a lie
Peering into this vast expanse of
Nothing
As the lights continue to mindlessly beam
At the starless midnight sky
