One Place

Whats your place?

One Place
Do you have that one place
Where you can go to, to escape?
Mine is the shower..
I can lock the door behind me
And no one asks why
I can stare at my naked body
And no one can judge but me
I can turn the water to steaming hot
Or to the right for ice cold
I usually choose extremely hot
So hot it fogs the mirror in seconds
And no one can say a word about it
The water runs down my sore muscles
Only I can feel the pain
I raise my face up at the water
Only it can wash my beauty away
I can use the shampoo that I like
And clean my hair the way I want
Without anyone complaining
And I can make fun hair dews out of soap
With no one thinking I’m a dork but me
I can sing with a low voice
Where only the water can hear me
I can leak out my tears from my eyes
And only the wall feels them
I stand so close to the tile
Because it wont push me away..
I can talk to myself
Without it thinking I’m crazy
I can have wild pleasure emotions
Without it thinking I’m a freak
The shower is one place
I can go to get away from everything
It’s a place where there is no stress
Or harm, or damage, or battle ..
Just me and the water.

I think this is one of your best pieces. This is so Outstanding! I can totally relate! Although I do like showers, I prefer to soak in a hot as I can stand bath...that's my escape! You have certainly opened up a very personal side of yourself to us. Thank you for sharing such a Wonderful piece of art!

Sounds like an introduction to your safe zone. Somewhere to escape from all the troubles of the world. It's nice, and obviously of importance jugdeing from how passionate you write about it. Well done.

I like this. I actually feel really vulnerable in the shower, especially when I shower when no one is home. But besides that, this is really well written. I enjoyed it, as always=]

Hey QP okay I am in love with this poem. I am ready to write after a month. This great poem open the gates to my brain. I think this is one of your most creative pieces yet. With a book of your poems you would inspire a whole bunch of writers. Thanks!

With no one thinking I'm a dork but me

Great job on this piece. I really enjoyed what it said. I agree that we all need a place to where we can be ourselves. In a very judgmental society, without one, we might lose our mind,
