You Drift Away

Swam against your waves
the glinting glass
cut against me
darkly flowing past
like frightened
shadows

swallowed by an
empty starless blue
as the spreading ocean
swelled and grew
from here
to you

you drift away
you drift away

drawn in by the
undertow you went
and another
comfortless night spent
waiting
but weightless

you drift away
you drift away
