Ne me dis pas que tu es un poisson

Palermo, Sicily

Don’t tell me that you are a fish

You don’t just slip in and out of life

You know we live in an ocean, right?

And what you do, it filters over to me, too

Not just when we pass by

But you are not young

But you are also not wise

You hurt people, you know

You must know that, if you bite me I bleed

Just because you think you can breathe in the water

doesn’t mean we all want to be pulled under

Don’t you remember?

I didn’t want to walk into the water

You told me to trust you

When I wasn’t looking,

Suddenly you were in
