I can still taste your skin

On your drive home

The salt reminds me of the ocean

And I can see myself there

I am walking to the end of the street turning corners until my feet hit the shoreline

And I keep walking

I walk into the ocean

I keep walking until I'm submerged

And as the current pulls me deeper

I don't come up for air

I finally don't have to think

And then I shake my head turning around

Looking at the taillights on your car

As you drive away

And I walk inside instead
