Succumb

Bending over to wash my legs
the water flowed up my back like the Nile
creating rivulets through my hair
washing my face with streams
working my way around my thighs
my hands become yours
the visions and the feeling
close my eyes and bite my lip
dripping then flowing

Thinking of times spent in dreams
not claiming reality
the glass door slides open
invisible hands wrap around my waist
dripping then flowing

water crushed .
screaming and laughing
between bodies
I try to hold up a wall
that's not falling
through my fingers
dripping then flowing

I open my eyes
and succumb to the knowledge
I can see you
but dare not touch you
I crumble against the wall
and from my eyes tears
dripping then flowing
