washing you away

sometimes i think about us

about everything we did

and suddenly i can feel the ghost of you touching me

and i wash my hands 

but your fingerprints are still all over

i can't get you off of me

so i take a shower, 

hot enough to blister my skin

and i wash

and i wash

and  i scrub until my skin is raw

but you're still there

damn you,

you're still there. 


they say that with 7 years, every cell in your body will be destroyed and replaced

so i will keep washing 

until you haven't touched a cell in my body
