Every street is you.

Every cobblestone reeks of you.

Your shadow lurks in the nook behind the signal.

Your footsteps echo in the narrow lane curving before me.

I turn, and I can almost hear your laughter, bubbling over a dank drain.

Another corner, another street lamp. I see a dark shape, patting the head of a sleeping dog.

My pace quickens, but never quite matches the tempo of the tune you're whistling.

I skim these neon streets, following your flippant whistle.

Something floats to the ground. My fingers curl around a fading melody.

Every song is you.

We're over a forest.
There's millions of snowflakes.
We're dancing.
The world is so loud.
Keep falling and I'll find you.
