Point of a Pointillist

At the bottom of the well,
we sunk into each other,

I let my flesh push into yours when the water softened it a bit,
but I didn't like how all of this was starting to feel like sandpaper,

not you,
not me or our skin,

just this,
us,

it was the worst,
and I found myself yelling and the clawing my way up the bricks,

and then it was raining down in on me,
literally,
like God was calling my bluff,

but I just wanted to get away from you,
up,
and out of there,
so I could run over rolling hills,
across the valley of death,
and into the Fata Morgana,

even if it was only in your dots,
your dots
