I am counting sunsets
On my fingers,
Falling short.
The sky falls so slow here
I can almost see
My eyelids brush the bottom.
The distance between us
Stretches beyond land and oceans
Yet the same star would fall on us both.
Your voice to me is waves
From the sound of air in a sea shell,
I can't tell which is what.
The moon and my bed
Feel the same
Perhaps so are you and the images in my head.
If you knew, if you knew.
