Midnight Convenience

Neon hum, aisle three glow

Labels line up like a metronome row

Cold can clinks in a paper bag

レジ横の灯り 目を細める

Cashier nods, we trade small smiles

Street’s a runway for a midnight mile

今夜は遠回りでもいい

I pace my steps in 4/4 style

Moon on cables, silver lines

ため息も リズムに

I let the city keep the time

Midnight convenience, I’m alright

Tiny joys under vending lights

Hold this calm, keep it light

寄り道も 悪くないよね

Keys in pocket, heart in time

I’m home by the skyline

Crosswalk ticks like vinyl hiss

Shoes draw circles in gentle mist

だれも急がない いい夜だ

Billboard clouds drift out of frame

I whisper thanks with no big name

小さな “幸せ” それでいい

Streetcat blinks—then looks away

If the world speeds up by day

夜は “not yet” の合図

I walk my quiet way
