separate from the waterlines

this poem is a demi glosa, the two lines are from "equinox", a poem by susan musgrave.

the lines are as follows:
"floating from darkness
like separate tides"

here goes,

I looked into you for a second
split into fragments.
our fingers laced, hips twisted,
and legs touching. I let the water
wash over my face, numbering each
drop to slide off my nose. outlining
the shape of your lips.
Alone in that room again.
Closing our blinds.
Floating from darkness.

Could you be rid of me sooner? sticky
with guilt, I placed my bare feet on the floor.
I remember mother saying "try holding an
asprin between your knees". marking me
before the target. Our bodies lapsing
and turning, you rushed past me.
Cracking bones and
removing veins.
disecting, intersecting,
like separate tides.
