its almost midnight

[stargazer_baby]

i walk home with my ipod
blaring in my ear
drowning out the street sounds
dressed in black in the bleak night
i wonder if you can see me in your big SUV
i would how it would feel
to have you collide into me
i walk passed you on the street
you faceless nameless wonder
as you turn from me to light your cigarette
i think slow.painful.death.
but you pass me by
as you exhale your smoke
into the frosty air
and i drink my starbucks tea
and put a blank look on my face
as if to say my thoughts are as shallow as my cup
