aqua
fluid ecstasy,
dripping stars
from my coral cased strands,
rivers tumbling down
from the crevices
in my hands.
two lilies found a home-
one tangled behind my ear,
the other dangling
at my hips,
lapping at the moonlit surface,
dipping in to taste the night.
i swim and breathe
in forbidden air,
the water folds
and finds its way
into my panic fringed nerves
to kiss my fears away.
another moment
and i will fade away
in a whirlpool, forever.
just tonight
i shine
in my watery jewels
with shooting stars
in my heart.
