Dive Poem by Henry Utomudo

Dive



feel like drowning next to me? When all that's between us is fabric, I know your heart still beat like the first time. If we held on too long we might exhaust the magic, I still kiss you like we're doing it for the last time.

does your body cringe at the sight of the hooded executioner? if my love comes crashing down on you, I know you'd stay put and not flee for your dear life. All of my life is encompassed around you, you have taken away my will to escape even if I remembered to try.

you said we'd grow old and die together, we're dying but we're not old. So we dive in the pool of forever and drench our tired souls in the depths of eternity. If you Lose me in the rapids, I'll sprout out in the springs and join your waterfall decent.
And we go back to where we started and dive again..
