With wet hair
my bed was unfamiliar bed
and I sobbed the majority of the night
while all were sick around me.

and I felt alone
helpless
and wanted you to be with me
more than I ever had
to warm up the cool patches
in those sheets
and to offer your chest
as I mimicked waterfalls
This night was a horrible night for me. Events earlier (see "Dad"), caused my family and I to flee the night to the cover of a hotel near by. Being extremely emotionally overwhelmed, I was pretty much unable to stop crying. Admits all this, I was watching the movie "Selena" hence the title.
