my shower burned this morning.
not because of the hot water, though.
yes, i left with burn marks,
but it "burned" as in "it stung".
i suppose i could've just said,
"i cut again", instead of "my shower burned this morning".
i stepped out of the shower, shivering
because i let the water run until it was freezing.
i just wanted to soothe my incisions.
i've never been good at making decisions.
