submerged

what if this gentle fool you know
reached out a hand placed it just so
upon your cheek
and ran his fingers through your hair

would you lean into his caress
closing your eyes take in a breath
and cup his hand in yours

day after day
this intimate exchange
below the surface is restrained
he holds his breath
and slowly goes insane
