The City Falls Asleep
"When the city falls asleep
Your promise you do keep
To guide our silent footsteps
Give us limits to test
Till our bodies are put to rest
Set down in a grave
Silently we lay
But alive with you today
While our loved ones pray
That you will keep us safe
Show others your unending grace."

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
