I've held onto this for so long tho know it's gone A buoy floating me yet coaxing me Behind the boot I lick the salt from wounds soaking In the Adriatic We swam up that route, it looped back through blackwater In crescent stress you turned red, all hot and bothered (All I had I offered) "Would you trail and trust me now?" I gave a heart growing To the Adriatic You told me about your plants, they're rootless, not delicate, they hang in air We walked by some dinosaurs Caught your embrace, a life vest I've waited so long for I kept on floating And then at night, we cast warm light and ladybirds, staving that black city Sacred resound, we staked our ground, your hand in mine But I felt it slipping To the Adriatic And so behind that brush, all in a rush, I said too much I should have hushed, upon that rock it was all too soon You didn't wanna swim, you didn't lean in when I went out on a limb You got cold footing I got a parking ticket Now I'm hypernatremic And so dogmatically that black city it captures me A prisoner so willingly Swallow somatically, familiarly enveloping, it's almost comforting My body withdrawn From the Adriatic And later on I asked about that heart growing Drank too much rain, that black water, it got guttered, and so it drowned While that one sank Mine's still floating In the Adriatic
