Memories around her shoulders warm as the night
they said goodbye ocean a distant silver glimmer
in the rear view mirror future an impassable
escarpment stretching as far as the eye could see
she trembled at its base unable to move forward
or around unwilling to go back huddled in moments
warm and soft as the night they met moonlit ocean
a silver expanse at their feet future a rolling landscape
lush and green holding all promises she trembled
in his arms unable to move forward or around unwilling
to go back huddled in flickering blue moments hard
and cold as the escarpment devouring a sinking sun
