problem

i know this situation,

for I have been here before.

charming man with a killer smile and an expiration date

perfect for me to scoop up

& impossible to keep in my hands

like warm sand on a cold beach

he speaks my first tongue

and I master it for him

ojos oscuros, cabello castaño, y unos labios

besándome, que me llevan…

in a trance I willingly

dive in, foolishly

I am immersed, seduced

deeper and even more

unconcerned, not thinking

that I may end up having a hard time

coming up for air,

without fear.

i recognize, as the pressure hits my head

the deeper i go, the dangerous it gets

and the more beautiful too.
