lullaby

you tap the surface of the water
and it ripples, the sunlight
acting as a prism as it colors the water.
the lime-green fish backtracks,
kissing the water once it returns stagnant
and you sing him a lullaby
though he can't hear it.
"i once believed i would die without you,
but now, i
know i'm stronger than that"
