Diving

You've been here before:
The taste of lipstick, the smell
Of hair spray, the touch of nylon
Any of these will do.

Let me drop into
A deep blue ocean,
Dip in the shallows
Pour into a living vessel
This certain necessity

Breathing, seething, teeming
I could drink oceans of your company,
Drown with your presence,
