He let out a long, tired sigh. His aquamarine embedded eyes swept across the city, reflecting the many city lights like fireflies trapped in an ocean. Up here on the rooftop, the wind that tousled his dark hair had a sense of lightness and freshness to it. It was nice.

Taking a seat on one of the air vents, he leaned back. His back touched against one of the protective covers of a motor used to run the machinery in the building. From the stars of the black sky to the lights of the blacktop streets, the view from the roof was every kind of wonderful. Cars honked and dogs barked in the background, people hurried to get home, some laughing, some tired . . . All of them living their own lives. It was strange; he wondered how sometimes despite all of us living on the same planet, every single person still lived a completely different life. He reached out to his small box of fries, taking one out before pressing "play" on his device. The sound of a soft, lulling song hummed through his earphones.

𝑀𝓇. 𝒮𝒶𝓃𝒹𝓂𝒶𝓃, 𝒷𝓇𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝓂𝑒 𝒶 𝒹𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓂
𝑀𝒶𝓀𝑒 𝒽𝑒𝓇 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒸𝓊𝓉𝑒𝓈𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝐼'𝓋𝑒 𝑒𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝓈𝑒𝑒𝓃

He enjoyed spending his time at night on rooftops. It was his way of rising above all the bullshit.

𝒢𝒾𝓋𝑒 𝒽𝑒𝓇 𝓉𝓌𝑜 𝓁𝒾𝓅𝓈 𝓁𝒾𝓀𝑒 𝓇𝑜𝓈𝑒𝓈 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒸𝓁𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓇𝓈
𝒜𝓃𝒹 𝓉𝑒𝓁𝓁 𝒽𝑒𝓇 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝒽𝑒𝓇 𝓁𝑜𝓃𝑒𝓁𝓎 𝓃𝒾𝑔𝒽𝓉𝓈 𝒶𝓇𝑒 𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓇
𝒮𝒶𝓃𝒹𝓂𝒶𝓃, 𝐼'𝓂 𝓈𝑜 𝒶𝓁𝑜𝓃𝑒

Up here ...

𝒟𝑜𝓃'𝓉 𝒽𝒶𝓋𝑒 𝓃𝑜𝒷𝑜𝒹𝓎 𝓉𝑜 𝒸𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝓂𝓎 𝑜𝓌𝓃

Nothing else mattered,

𝒫𝓁𝑒𝒶𝓈𝑒 𝓉𝓊𝓇𝓃 𝑜𝓃 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝓂𝒶𝑔𝒾𝒸 𝒷𝑒𝒶𝓂

Nothing else mattered, but the stars

𝑀𝓇. 𝒮𝒶𝓃𝒹𝓂𝒶𝓃, 𝒷𝓇𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝓂𝑒 𝒶 𝒹𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓂
