I have eyes of glass, you say,
Like a Victorian stuffed animal.
Your eyes betray your anguish
Strained or swimming.
Carnal snarl
Canines for ripping
Curiosity killed the cat,
How evading and paradoxical
When it is plain we are animal,
Grappling bodies.
When your eyes swim with pain and confusion
Regularly and sporadically
I am left at sea, afraid of water
Seaweed choking despair,
You are too busy drowning
To hold my hand
I am but fingertips
Sliding under
Drowned
