As I stand in the shower,
beads of water fall
down
my
body
while the bathroom fogs up.
Water is hot as lava
but it feels so good.
I just want to stay here,
away from reality.
I don't have to deal with my problems
in this steamy safe place.
It's my escape.
As I turn off the water
and slide open the curtain,
a cold breeze hits my skin,
creating goosebumps all over.
Can I turn the water back on?
