You can be the river flowing down my skin, but how do I begin to tread waters that I have once drowned in before? You make sinking feel like a dance with the sea. Waves do not always come before the breakdown, but somewhere there is a storm and my heart is always sighing at me. Puddles, puddles of ash. Dear love, I am burning on the inside, and I have grown so used to the sting. You can be the river flowing down my skin. You can be the river flowing down my skin.
