away from you
the light does not fall the same
not the same
the road bends, as it always does
curves and turns and rolls with the
landscape
but I do not follow
the horizon just out of reach of my eyes
out and beyond
away from you
the still water, though reflecting the sky perfectly
seems a riotous storm in my passing glance
and then as the moments stretch like the shadows
over the corners, like a well worn shirt caught
on the shoulder blades
caught
away from you
half naked in the open window
this is where you can see
me
away from you
