Engine

Still sufficient in depending on you
depending on each other.
Engine noise whispering
through half asleep startled by
startled by headlights and loose
startled by loss pavement

As Illinois goes rushing by

where will the sun come up for us today?
Turning bad days into better nights
Waving smoke out the window
catch my hand against the background of night
Dragging fingertips through constellations
When we make the last turn
when we make the last turn for home
we know half the battle is through

Still sufficient in depending on you
depending on each other
Engine noise whispering through
