Street Lights

I don’t let myself drive past dark
The black sky
Moonlight
Dozing off through passing lights.

Nightstand

There are pills under my nightstand.
The same ones tearing holes all over the house.
They’re tucked away in darkness and dust, forgotten caverns that only I can enter.
The same ones that wake us at night.
