Beneath the concrete sky, stars fade to neon glow,
The restless hum of engines, a city’s ceaseless flow.
Shadows dance on pavement, secrets they conceal,
The heartbeat of the urban night, so vivid, so surreal.

Towers pierce the heavens, steel and glass so high,
Their mirrored faces reflecting dreams that never die.
Alleyways hold whispers of lives both lost and found,
A mosaic of stories, in every sight and sound.

The river’s gentle murmur, a lullaby so sweet,
Bridges span the waters, where past and future meet.
Lamp posts cast their halos on paths both old and new,
Guiding souls through darkness, under skies of midnight blue.

In the early morning light, the city wakes anew,
The symphony of silence gives way to daily hue.
The city’s pulse, it quickens, as dawn begins to break,
A testament to life within, in every breath we take.
