He was like a lost puppy staring in my eyes
He was foolish for searching for shallows found in eyes like hers

And I'd grown tired of reminding him to look away or drown;
I was not a kiddie pool for his feet.
He was to cannonball and submerge himself from head to toes
Or he was not to dip a fingertip into me at all.
