Amber lights
Of lit houses
Of people who don’t know who they are
They sit at the table
With the paper by the fire
Hot tea with loving warmth
They dont see the blacked streets
There people live
With no hope
They forget
How small of a peace they are
To the large world
Lost in thought with no hope in the darkened streets
Looking in on the amber lights
Hopeing wishing they had that to.
As you sit in your amber lit house
Thinking of the people
Who don’t have what they have
Wishing they could help
But not knowing how
Thinking
Of what it would be like on the other side
Trying not to think to much
beacuse why should they
it's not them
lost in a barke hatefull world
Things never change with the
Houses full of amber lights
Two stories that never become one
Always apart
Like other worlds seem so far away
But yet in reality so close
One day they will be one
Or at least we can only hope.

I love the imagery here, nice and vivid and I like how you can kind of picture an almost collision in a sense. Very sad as well, such a lonely person in a lonely world.
