Hurling into the shower sobbing until the water ran cold fury betrayal hopelessnees bouncing off the porcelain walls returning to coat me in my accusations shaking in rage kneeling on that hard porcelain wracked by angry images pelted by tepid water and cold realities lava tears burning hatred trails in violent weeping till sliding to the floor in exhausted acceptance watching the water play upon defeated fingers beading and rolling moisture drops cooling running in aimless rivers along the white walls of my skin steady porcelain rain a soothing beat upon my back calming me with wet caresses surrounding salty remembrance washing you away... |

*Strugles to catch her breath again after the stark realities of this poem.* Oh, I've been there and your poem rings so vividly true. Wonderful writing! |
