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
