In meditation upon you I lost myself. My toes curled into themselves and I fell inwards. Filling with storm floods. Naked in dark water. Swimming with gills. I breathe your air between wet lips. I am paper thin pale, you colour me red as I break my ribs to go deeper. Entwined, we become both more and less. Electrons energise, orbiting, exchanging. We are pure reaction, molecules of sex, coded so complex I became intangible. Indelible. The marks we lay upon each other. The vivid dreams of life together. We held hands tight trying not to tremble. Creaking loudens as water swells. Swallow screams as we submerge. In black water our bedsheets become jellyfish wrapping stinging strings around my neck. Your eyes empty and you slip away as silver bubbles steal my breath.
