Bath Time

My time.

Bath Time

Drop my sunflower dress in a crumple floral mess

I need relief, need to wash away my griefs

Slide out of my restrictions and and in to nude contradictions

Warm water and steam making the bathroom so much hotter

I find my home in this blissful foam

Water and bubbles to melt away my troubles

Candles light this quiet moment in my night

I’m here to forget my worries

Head filled with stories

Wonderful words, and choosing not to have feathers

Here in this water I’d rather be tethered

So I dream of faraway places and first time faces

I linger here, sleep near

But I am not within these tiles

No I’m long gone

Possibly thousands of miles

Bath time brings me smiles…

Ah, there's nothing like a hot bath to wash away the stress of the day. You've proven that you can turn the simplest subject into a lovely piece of poetry:)

i find a nice hot bath to be so relaxing and casual. a shower is too much like walking and spinning around to get all the bits cleaned is dizzying....excellent little foray into the releases of a great bathtub experience...who woulda thunk it?

[Jessica Gillitzer]

i've been told i can find a way to turn poetic almost anything, maybe not a good poem but one never the less... lol. =oD
