This City

We look out over the city and we see the lights that comprise it. Like little stars laid out across the ground they form orbs and twirl across the land. A shiny canvas. This night all we see are the street lights and not what lie beneath them. The scrummy streets and garbage littered sidewalks... Tonight, the world seems pure like diamonds and it reflects light across our skin. This city it seems is something I took for granted but I've found new perspective I do believe.
