sunbather
worry eraser
slowly you seep into my skin
like a heavy lotion
the sunโs rays
burning me within.
Your caresses are a medicine
to rub inside
your smile
a light
I cannot see
without
I cannot get you off
my mind
your red bikini
tan flesh
the games we played
my mermaid
Will any day
be like today again?
memory undying
like the waves
crashing white
this unknown feeling
raising from my toes
and there it goes
only a moment
golden sand
escaping your hand
We are where
we are destined
our protests
echoes of a shell
tomorrow?
who can tell.
a day in the sun
to wash it all
away.
