The City and You

It's hard to imagine living anywhere but here. Where City meets the urban dream. I can hear the rumblings of the highway, and yet in the bright colours of the morning, I hear birds chirping. A skunk visits my backyard, however so do the honking of cars speeding by. A city full of people and all I wanted was you. I wanted the smile that spread across your face, as I walked into a room. The crinkle on your forehead you get when you're stressed. The dark circles under your eyes the morning after a long night. The way you get annoyed at me when I can't make up my mind. All I wanted was to be in a crowded room staring at you. My love for the city never compared to my love for you.
