what do you think of this?

for creative writing we have to write a poem based off of a picture. im very stuck on this. here's one of the poem's i wrote, it's based off of a picture of new york, let me know what you think:


i want to get lost in your neon eyes,
i see the reflection of maybe and chances etched on your face.
I want you to cover me with your blanket of smog,
like you would a small child at night.

let me weave my way in and out of you,
like men in business suits.
Make my feet tremble
with the train underneath your concrete body.
Capture me like an animal with your skyscraper limbs
so I can never leave your beautiful city,
full of restlessness and dreams.
