Traffic Light Green – Benjamin Moore 2032-20
He looks through the taxi cab’s window,
Raindrops rolling
Down the glass.
The stoplight illuminates the rain
A red,
Light that prevents
progress.
Looking beyond the window’s surface,
He sees the same sight he had seen for so many years.
The buildings,
Lifeless,
Monotonous,
A dull grey color.
The rainy days,
Interminable storms,
Washing away hopes
Of a sunny day
A brighter future.
The stoplight,
Always on red,
Never giving in,
Never giving him the green light.
Every day,
Is a bleak winter day.
His hands rest in his coats pockets,
Taking deep breaths
and watching the vapor assimilate in the air.
Nice, very enjoyable. The only thing i'm wondering about is that there are two different fonts used and that underneath the pic it shows a code for line breaks.
