I am just a parasite - a rancid creature of<br />
The night- with eyes that never see the light<br />
Of day. Papers blow over empty streets-<br />
People inside houses I'll never meet are<br />
Feeling safe and safely wasting away.<br />
They Are all inside asleep - living love that they<br />
Can't keep - speaking words that they could<br />
Never say. Dreams of learning how they might<br />
Make amends and set things right- are<br />
Conveniently forgotten the next day... <br />
Safely wasting away.
