I Miss You

The air is cool tonight

the bright lights of the city
surround me
I have nowhere to go and
nothing to do

It would be so much better
if you were here

I walk down to the pier
and have the crab guy crack some crab for me
in the hubbub of the tourist throng

While I'm waiting
I get some clam chowder in a bread bowl

I look out at the bay,
and wonder how the Mariners will do tonight

Wishing I had a life

This one is sad. I hope that you find some solace. I think you sound like a very cool guy and it seems like you have a neat life. You're definitely creative. Continue to find the beauty around you and the beauty within you.

Thanks, but it isn't really supposed to be sad...I just like writing about San Francisco, and this one kind of had a little melancholy tone by accident.

San Francisco is definitely beautful. I always enjoyed spending time there. I also loved driving on Highway 1 while viewing Big Sur.

Yup. I love it there. I love the city and the surrounding area, Monterey, etc. Unfortunately I am too poor to live there!

I agree with you about being too poor to live there. The good news is that it doesn't cost as much to visit it!

Hmmm. You were in San Francisco when you wrote this?
