City of Zen

It’s just after 10pm

darkness blankets

the city of Kyoto

the streets have emptied

rain still lingers

in the air

neon lights

guide my way

as I wander

the lonely streets

finding my way

home

I feel like a lost soul

on planet Japan

there is a peace in it

a quiet confidence

within myself

I came here

to recreate myself

to listen

to my soul

In the quiet

solitude

of old Japan

Kyoto

city of Zen
