deep waters

I fill the bathtub with water

I let down my hair

Falling on my shoulders, 

waves of irresistible mess 

I find bits of you on bits of me

lovemarks that I begged for

apricot smell fills the air

My skin smells like you

My body’s full of secrets

like anybody else

My emotions are waterfalls

deep waters 

beautiful

dangerous

Sometimes I drown in them 

Sometimes I sway

And either way

you still stay…
