Shadow Crossing

Bass walks slow

It starts to hum

City whispers

Here it comes

Groove so slick

It’s on the run

Neon signs

They paint the night

Soft reflections

Wrong feels right

Glass in hand

Moon takes a sip

Fingers trace a sinking ship

Flicker of gold

A shadow turns

Heat in the air

My heartbeat burns

Moonlit streets

Where secrets glow

Underneath

The night moves slow

Every step

A story untold

Moonlit streets

They never grow old

A saxophone cries through the haze

Sidewalk stories

Endless maze

The city sighs

A velvet tone

I’m not lost

Just on my own

A shimmer of blue

A rhythm calls

Echoes of time between the walls
