I will forever show my affection
through the holes in my hands
and with it ill create us rivers of salt

you have swum with me
naked
and have easily hid your discomfort
or maybe you simply don not mind it

many have disapproved my affection
many fear water
and thus I drown them
and they were gone

do not expect me to hold your head underwater
but to instead lead you to my river banks
and if you run away
i will
let you
when my sweating stops
my river's run dry
