Seawater Kisses

from Shallows by Joy

	/

lyrics

When summer comes
It drips down your neck
And settles in your sneakers

It hangs in the air
Like something you never should’ve said

It fizzes on the tarmac
And sweats in your hands

And falls from your mouth
In a gust of sand and sailboats
That leaves saltwater on your lips

When I kiss you in the summer
Seagulls howl and whirl in our mouths
Our mouths have wings of their own
