My lover has water running through her veins

Literature Text

She flows around stone and quenches fires
her voice showers like rain on a spring night
and feels so gentle that people misunderstand

They mistake water for weakness
and she indiscriminately swallows garbage
letting words stagnate and pollute her

She tells me ”Baby, I don’t have that passion you do
your fire is so wonderful and brilliant”
and I want to cry because even water can sear and turn to steam

My oceanbaby, you don’t need the tiny flame in me
the sea is home to the largest creatures in the world
and rivers reduce mountains to sandstone

I want you to roar like crashing waves
and let the world know you have the power
to drown mankind
Something I wrote for Ai-Bee a while ago.

Meant to upload it here a while ago, but it's been on my Tumblr for a while :O
