Running Water

We felt like raindrops on a car window together,
We fell like footsteps on this glassy weather.
Transparently, our dripping sleeves
wiped watery streaks for all of the occupants to see
through their breath, its restless monotony.
We held together by our hands as we splattered.
We and hell set to collide and
we just worried about our landing,
the briefly frozen. patter of our standing,
the unspoken moment
as we both started to scatter.
But we run the same way: one after the other,
growing thinner together across the speeding window.
We run the same way, running into each other,
Until one drop, smaller than how we first began,
Shatters.
