When the lights go ou <br />And the cold sets in <br />Devils run the streets <br />Teens cry in their sleep <br /> Our worl of outward appearances <br /> Comes crashing, crashing down <br /> They grey colour in my eyes takes place <br /> As I make my rounds <br />The colors drip from the child's brush <br />Mmm. A masterpiece <br />Lights are gleaming as she takes my hand <br />She walks down the middle road with me <br /> And as us two become just one <br /> I whisper in her ear <br /> 'you know the knight in shining armor? <br /> Well, guess what... he's here! ' <br />And the glow of his smile <br />Could light the world, but better yet- my own <br />Because if not for his guiding light <br />My heart would have no home<br /><br />Gabriella Franco<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/no-home-8-2-08/
