come on in baby the water is warm

i'm afraid to dive,
because
last time
i lost bits and pieces of myself
inside.

kiss me baby my lips are warm

i can't, because i'll swallow
what was left of the pride
in my mouth
when your tongue
is inside.

i'll hold you baby my body is warm*

my body is a shaking
little mess,
but you open your arms
and hold me
inside.
