2pm showers

you came to me in the shower today.

I closed my eyes to wash my face but instead I saw yours

I scrubbed my skin raw trying to rid my body of your memory

my neck

which was once your lips resting spot

my hands

which you promised to always hold

my soles

which eagerly walked through life with you

hair wet. heart weak. 

I mournfully watched as our love poured down the drain
