Quarter Moon
Lead My Way

The rain blew in from the east. It was a cold rain, almost snow, not quite, but a slush of sorts. The night was dark as well, only a quarter moon in the sky, but the candy cane street lights led the way.
The lonelieness of the the night really crept into John's bones. The bar had closed hours ago, and with nowhere to go, he thought to himself, "The streets have never been bad to me, they never tell you to go home, and eventually, they become your best friend." He turned his head down, as the the snow blew harder towards the hood covering his hair.
There it was. The place John had been trecking towards. A twenty four hour deli, with which he was very familiar with. The door slowly shut behind him, locking the cold into the night. He approached the counter, set down fifty five cents, and ordered a cup of coffee.
