i walk alone

by antwan fields - Aries

when night fall darkens the landscape
and vigilant children sit in their windows
i watch from my own
i walk alone

through shadows that lengthen with each step
with power that lessens with every single step
someone help that guy lying on his back on the corner

long night that never seem to end
short days that go on without a bend
i cant stay 
i walk alone

down dark streets that inflict fear
hearing noises that whistle into your ear
green grass that fails to grow
someone pulled the plug on this show

somewhere a sun rises
and car dealerships close off rooms that they have shown
somewhere, there is someone like me
he walks alone

failed to make life a boon
somewhere it screams, that bird called a loon
this is all that i have grown
as a 17-year old, i walk alone.
