flood.

Flood me,

He said.

With your,

Anticipations and Trepidations.

With your,

Ambitions and rejections.

Watch,

If I swim.

Or, if I

Drown.

Trial and Error

Has proven

That Disillusionment

Sells well.

You might never part

From

Your thunder.

But,

I cannot

Keep drinking

Your storms.

Flood you,

I would.

If I wasn't already

Swallowed in the Sea.

If I knew how to stay afloat.

If I knew that I would drown

In you,

With you.

Flood him,

I might.

Salinity put to use.

Waves,

Might float

You far.

And, I might

Remain

At the bottom of the ocean,

After you flood me.

With your,

Expiation and Affectation.

With your,

Desires and Wile.

You might

Watch then,

And deny

The rescue.
