New York City; everlasting; the city that never sleeps

With its abundance of productivity; inspirations and dreams.

Well that's the city of Manhattan,

Her small little neighborhood was deprived of this satin.

Sure, at a distance the flashing lights looked so pretty;

But in this little hood, her dreams were big and it, itty bitty.

She realized this while cruising the boulevard in his car.

And although she knew it didn't work; she wished upon a star.

She closed her eyes and whispered out loud, "Take me away from here."

He who had overheard her, leaned in and whispered in her ear,

"Just confide in me and I will my dear.

I'll create a world filled with your sparkling shards."

She just smiled at him as the two continued cruising on the boulevard.

This was inspired by my anticipation of turning 18,my lack of support of my parents, and the support of someone special.
