when you have to make a hard decision, flip a coin
why?
because when that coin is in the air...
you suddenly know what you're hoping for.

"It felt like you really knew me. Now it feels like you see through me" — The XX

There's a silver shimmer
between us
rippling in air
this pregnant silence, dripping into pools that drown us—
the only noise to be heard

Like lights playing with
the shadows on the windows
Like memories that surge and dissolve
crumbling so capriciously through time

Your smile fades in and out
an ebb and flow behind this veil
surfacing, reverberating between
two hemispheres
two souls

The sun's set in your eyes
And you don't see me
across the horizon anymore
