THE SHOWER

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

The water pounds against my bare skin
Like bullets, taking my life away
My hands run along every curve
Trying to erase all prints
All evidence
As if my body was a black board
The water trickles down my tear stained cheeks
To my neck
My breasts
My stomach
Running its way down me
Touching me
Numbing me
I cannot move
The tears mix with the water
Turning the tub into a blood bath
Telling the story of my life
Reminding me of everything I never wanted to remember
Of everyone I ever lost
The steam rises up
Suffocating me
Taking away all breath
All energy
I’m drowning within my thoughts
Within this shower
Within my life
