<h1>Walking</h1>
<div id="byline">by Allen Ng</div>

<div class="poem">
<p>She walks through my world.<br/>
I see her introspecting the space around her<br/>
And yet she sees none of it.</p>
<p>Walking down the street<br/>
I see my dreams<br/>
Walking past my eyes.</p>
<p>I see nothing through the night.<br/>
The stars come down<br/>
And fly around to keep me lonely.</p>
<p>Walking down the street<br/>
I watch my dreams<br/>
Tearing out my eyes.</p>
<p>Summer is in bloom, the flowers are dying.<br/>
As I shake from the shiver<br/>
And still think that I'm warm.</p>
<p>Walking down the street<br/>
I want the dreams<br/>
That aren't really mine.</p>
<p>Maybe one day I'll just keep walking.</p>
