Between the mountain and the deep blue sea,
Stands a liberating haven for the lost to flee.
Friendships ignited amongst the nocturnal crowd,
who form a family where temporary loyalty is vowed.
Some nights are favourable while others come at cost
Leaving some fulfilled and others horribly lost.
Unfamiliar experiences eventually become the norm,
and many withstand the never-ending “snow” storm.
Some are new to the home of tainted souls,
while others still find solace in experiences now “old”.
Many welcome the new found rush,
as they fall “in love” with their 100th crush.
For many the streets are a temporary escape,
for traumatised soul and heart wanting to break.
But despite the several emotions that this may sustain,
The length of this temporary escape depends only on the recovery of one’s disdain
