Exiled On Relief

We had no money, not even for a coffee
we walked in unfamiliar neighborhoods
in the rain and darkness.
I expected that one day they would arrest me.
But as you turned to light
our last cigarette
it was as if you held a moon ray
and you simply brought
the certainty of future to our present.
