We were swimming,
floating rather 

In shallow water
Rocks hurting the soles of my feet 
You pick me up, 
Hold me in your arms

we were swimming, 
floating rather

cradling me like a baby
still floating
in the Mediterranean water

You look at me and say,
“You know, I love you”
Then, to make sure I understand
and because you couldn't believe it yourself, 
you softly whisper to my cheek 
“I love you” 

for the first time
in a long time
I am absolutely calm

We were swimming, 
floating rather
