I’ve been drowning
Submerged in blue
Drenched in sound
Each note touches deeper
Deeper than the last
Caressed by warmth
Firm and perpetual
Worth enduring rare chills
Wary of the assailant
Provoked by the acids
Jaws of a shark bite hard
But the so often stable
So nearly perfect
The dark auburn
Soft, smooth and rippling
Can’t resist sinking
Craved and desired
Feels almost essential
