Floating fears inevitably realised:
bathe myelf in acid to ease
the pain you created.
Incredibly smooth surface,
you sting again and again.
Just leave the acid tap running.

I really like the abstract feel of this piece, and how you made every line count. The imagery helps this stand out as well.
Thanks for your entry,
