You've Been DriftingA Poem by Caitlin CardinalThe slow nights hours spent under those red lights the paper eyes watching ours close.
Your limbs spread unnaturally reach for me over pillows' crests, while your conciousness sails away.
You're on your way to Nowhere And I'm stuck in the Now Here. But it's where we want to be. These are the places that we need.
But when you cross the border I'm alone in this home. So while you're practicing tomorrows I will give you some tonights.
With pallid eyes, low visibility I send you telegrams of sincerity. Set them across your sleeping face with fingers light as dust.
You'll wake up tomorrow appeased and satisfied. I will know exactly why.
