Narrow Alley

In this narrow alley, I’ll walk through the dark time, toward the light, ultimately.

In the atmosphere of the city, 

where the shadows play,

There’s a narrow alley, 

where trust drifts away.

Whispers in the darkness, 

secrets left untold,

Every step I take, 

feels like I’m breaking the mold.

In this narrow alley, 

where the echoes call,

Finding a hidden clue, 

Though the walls feel small.

With every twist and turn, 

I’m searching for the light,

In this narrow alley, 

I found something odd tonight.

Graffiti on the pavement, 

stories carved in pistol dots,

Each corner holds a memory, 

Every step leads to -

something unusual.

The flicker of a lantern, 

guiding me through -

the gloomy time,

In this whisper of shadows, 

I’ll hold value tight.

The world outside is rushing, 

we all try to achieve something,

In these quiet surroundings, 

let's grasp the purpose of-

 what we've been doing. 

Embracing every moment, 

Getting things functioning.

In this narrow alley, 

deepen our viewpoint, 

brighten up shadows,

and move forward.

So I’ll walk this path, 

where the light & shadows blend,

In this narrow alley, 

I’ve found something unusual.

With the start above me, 

guiding my way up,

In this narrow alley, 

I’ll walk through the dark time,

toward the light, ultimately.
