Silent Breath

The city’s forgotten breath stills in a mist of spent lights.
Through the alleyways, air retains names of hours, voices hung upon the breeze.
When a lamppost falls quiet, the night whispers secret heartbeats.
And the street rebuilds what once was unseen.
Every time a lamppost stills, the air turns to a page.
The city’s breath writes in unseen calligraphy on wet walls.
The letters are breaths that drift through brick and lost voice.
And with every fresh flit, poetry waits to reappear.
