This City Is a Symphony
by: Anton Balane

This city is a symphony.
Listen. Can you hear it?
Amidst the howling wind and the
Bustling streets filled
With cars and people,
This city is breathing.
It is pulsating with the lives of people
Falling in love or
Getting their hearts broken,
Screaming, laughing, and humming
Catchy tunes as they stroll
Along these streets.
Their frustration, joy, envy,
Love, loss, anger, and loneliness
Coalesce into a cacophonous wave
That is this city’s heartbeat.
This city is a symphony and
We are its speakers.[/reponsivevoice]
