2pm showers

sincerelymarie

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

    I can so relate to your nuances, dear Poet
    thanks for sharing
    (love taints
    then its, tethers
    linger
    and try as we might
    new shower gel or perfume
    its scents, still haunt
    mercilessly
    till we're taking 2pm showers
    while reliving 2am scenes...)
