I've prayed for you more than anything. Tried swallowing the evidence of your name, yet still all can hear its beat against my inner lining. I have let go almost every day I have loved you. Each day except the first one. The morning you withdrew from me, I was determined to shut up my disloyal body. I chastised my heart for spilling its secrets. Wrapped every cell in my body in protective coating, yet somehow you found ways through membrane. Remind me of my affinity with all things fluid. Water always returns to its own.
