Whether it’s something or someone
I’m waiting for you ask
with a lip that trembles
for reasons I don’t know.
We’re sitting on a hill
overlooking a city
where no one dares to believe.
You tell me stories
about a homeland
that no longer exists
in your mother’s language.
Around us, the night falls
silently into place.
