Fish in Water


#I love you

But what does this mean?

I ask as I my fish comes to the surface of its pond

Hungry. Waiting. Eager for flakes, time to eat

The fish needs me, and...

For that moment I need the fish. 

Why am I so happy?

Because to love is to serve

I need you and you need me

Be my fish

I promise not to flake, but I can be your flakes

I don't know why I'm so happy,

But that's okay
