Regarding Your Jeans

I tried to stop myself, I really did try

but the water was so inviting

and the air was so humid

and I knew they were your jeans

that you had bought just

two weeks ago from our

favorite store

and I think most of the

saltwater smell will come out

in the wash. I’m sorry.

Next time

you should jump in with me.

  1. Maria? :( I love the ending, so incredible...quite the double meaning, yes?

  2. Yes, and this story is only partially true. The true parts: I jumped into the water at the beach with all of my clothes on and swam around, and Maria was forced to just sort of watch and photograph the event.

    And thank you :)
