Neon lights shine bright, Through the rain and the night, A crossing of Shibuya, Yet, my heart feels blue.

The city never sleeps, But my soul, it weeps, The beauty of the lights, Cannot erase my lonely nights.

In this crowded place, I feel out of place, Lost in the sea of faces, Wondering if anyone embraces.

The rain falls like tears, Amidst my doubts and fears, As I stand in this neon haze, Feeling lost in a world ablaze.

So I capture this scene, Of the lights and the rain serene, A memory of a melancholic night, In Shibuya crossing's neon light.
