Rain and Neon

Rainy night on Granville Street

a March night in downtown Vancouver

pouring rain and neon lights

I feel like I'm in a Simon and Garfunkel song

People walking in the pouring rain

moving silhouettes under the neon lights

rain and neon

like a painting I once saw

rain and neon

and so I walk in the rain

and watch the neon flash

Neon flash and pouring rain

the rain seems to wash away everything

everything but the loneliness.
