I took a shower to try to wash away all the pain and sadness you brought to me today I stood under the water until I was soaked I held my breath until I choked I lathered my body with the soap to wash away all your love and all my hope I shampooed my hair that you loved to touch I tried to hate you but you mean too much I turned off the water and stood there bare alone and naked needing you there I walked out of the shower and looked in the mirror this person is alone alone and in fear I wrapped myself in a towel that smells just like you I know this because I smell like you do I dried myself off my body and tears and try to see beyond this little girl in the mirror I made an attempt to smile but it failed as did I so instead I held myself as I started to cry...
