Quiet, Lonely Streets – Twitery 5 by @chrisloft, @christwitery

The moon is full on a cloudy sky.train
Cool air will chill my darkened mind.
Feel lighter now as she glides by,
dancing homewards thru the night.

Dancing homewards, soon I’ll be;
though you’re no longer there with me.
Safely home? It has been too long,
is there any place where I belong?

Is there any place where I belong?
I cannot reach that tiny beacon.
Moon you shine thru the lonely night.
As I walk the quiet streets alone.

As I walk the quiet streets alone -
I wonder what is going on?
You should tell your friend the truth -
what are you trying to hide or prove?

As I walk beneath a giant moon:
I wish that I were walking home.
I’m pulled toward her smiling light,
but I’m only going to my room tonight.

Phone calls in the night, that I cannot make.
Threats and innuendo, twisted out of context.
Misunderstanding. She hasn’t told him the truth.

But I am the villain. I am the evil doer.
Cast me out and scorn my memory.
Dump me into the nearest ditch -
like a cast off piece of rubbish

Dump me further than he ever dumped you -
leave me there to find my own way, safely home.
I still walk the quiet lonely streets. Where am I?

10 minutes ago from web

Where am I? Not safely home? Not safe. Not home.
No where. In some crazy limbo. In some crazy hell.
Inside my crazy mind. Walk silent night.
8 minutes ago from web

Walk silent night. Thru lonely, quiet streets.
Searching for a safe place.
Searching for that haven where no one can touch your private mind

6 minutes ago from web

You won’t get out of my head. Cast you out, but you return.
Ring you up, but I am spurned.
Look at you, but I am burned and I cannot return.
4 minutes ago from web

I can never return to that place.
I will never share your mind,
your smile, your laughter, your dreams.
Cast out, dumped out in the shadows.

2 minutes ago from web

Full, bright moon shines from the shadows.
I walk the lonely, quiet streets;
searching for my way back home from the time when I was scorned
