subterranean

I laughed to myself as I stepped,
thinking I've been here before--
never really knowing where I am.
This city haunts, but in the good way.
Some nights envelop you; let you in.
It's like you become a part of it.
I'll always be a part of it and vice versa.
The amazing air takes me back.
Leaves me back.
I want to stay forever.
What I need lay just underfoot.
The breeze may caress my arms,
mess my hair, I welcome it.
You can't live in a moment-
but you can carry it away with you.
You can always escape,
just open your mind and go.
The city remains.
