No Lifeguard On Duty
I don’t want to be in your bed sheets.
And I don’t want you tangled up in mine,
I made my bed this morning.
I don’t want you in my bed sheets,
Tangled up in them
Entwined
As if they were the vines of lust,
Binding you to the mirage of Us
The vines of love are coated with dust,
It’s dangerous.
It’s slippery.
Wet like the ocean as soon as you dip in me.
They say the ocean is deep and within it lie secrets...
Kiss me farewell and dive to the bottom of the seven seas just to keep it.
I don’t want to go swimming in my bed sheets.
Then they’d be drenched from the high tides of expired desire
I don’t want to wring out the deception that you perspire
I don’t want to make my bed again.
My laundry is clean.
