there are plenty of fish in the sea
their lustrous scales shimmer brightly
against the light of the scorching star
seeping into the cracks and corners
of this endless sapphire abyss
i’m drowning,
the saccharine waves
dribbling from my tender lips
are almost as sweet as you
a shimmer here, a shine there
my eyes are blinded
the warmth rushes through my veins
no longer am i a cold-blooded creature
but my heart is still bitter
