Fish

 I live inside your thoughts

Like a fish in a river

Swallowing mouthfuls of your desire

All day and all night

When it rains and floods

your tension

Your rising expectations

overwhelms me

As you demand things

No one has ever dared to demand from

Me

And some mornings I wake up

To a clear cool stream

And I float like drops of sunlight

Here I float mercilessly
Where I cannot drown
And cannot escape
