Walking alone during these winter nights <br />I'm left with my own thoughts <br />As well as cherishing everything I've got <br /> <br />Walking alone during these winter nights <br />I'm on my own <br />Jobless and no girlfriend <br />Nowhere for me to go <br />Nothing for me to do <br /> <br />The alleyways are my safe haven <br />And one day I hope to reach out and touch <br />heaven <br />If only for a few seconds <br />If only for a few moments <br /> <br />Walking alone during these winter nights <br />I stand by the bridge <br />Looking down at the river <br />Watching the water rush along <br />Just letting it relax me <br /> <br />Afterwards <br />I continue to walk along and alone <br />Seeing this person and that person <br />Passing all of them by <br /> <br />Looking up at the night sky <br />The stars are out <br />But the moon is nowhere to be found <br />I continue to walk along and alone <br />In this dismal town <br />With nothing to attach to my name<br /><br />Justin Gildow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/walking-alone-during-these-winter-nights/
