PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Use a streetlight

to show me

that things are okay

the tunnel

between us

lit up from the inside

so that when

it’s finally sunset

I don’t have to worry about you.

Illuminate

the house where

both our secrets lurk

and close the door until I’m finally

always

never alone.

Maybe this house

can finally

close me in,

maybe

this streetlight

can be my salvation.
