Glass framed towers in the haze
Sun kissed steel in soft arrays
City hummed its restless tune
Room held stillness like a moon
Hands on sill felt gentle rise
Breath aligned with passing skies
Trains below moved rushing feet
Calm above refused defeat
Not escape not turning cold
Just a pause where peace took hold
Crowds continued unbent flow
You chose slow and warmth would grow
City never asks to flee
Healing lives in how you see
Windows open to inner air—
Quiet hearts find light everywhere
