Seasick

I lay dormant 

enclosed by your four walls 

the overhead lights hug me 

as luminescence wraps me in blue 

I fall into you fully clothed 

I allow myself to sink into the waves 

of the sheets that surround 

as you manage to stay afloat 

my head bobs for air 

the waves you provided once scared me 

they roared in my ear 

they crashed against my body 

but they caressed me tenderly afterwards

I’ve grown accustomed to their inconsistencies 

as all the motion blends into one strong feeling 

you start to push me below the water 

and I don’t fight you 

It’s frigid

and yet, I’m overwhelmed with warmth 

you continue to drown me 

& I choke 

you laugh 

& I cry 

but we enjoy it 

Together
