We fall through each other
and when we fall we catch each other
but more often I find I am catching myself.
I catch moments and memories
of falling,
and of waking up to the phone ringing and of
your voice catching me through the wires on the other line.
And I always hope
that you are happy and you are safe,
and that I will see you soon,
because that is what you want.
and I always hope you will not ask me what I want.
We fall through each other,
and when we fall we catch each other,
and sometimes I feel like I am falling alone.
But when I wake up,
when I open my eyes,
I have not moved, and you are still there,
waiting to catch me if I fall.
