I feel the soft patter of water on my head. I look up at the small holes that project the only light I can see. Water is coming through, raining on me. Ahh,it feels wonderful. The water isn't "clean"though. It contains all of the dirt and sweat from your busy day. I stick my tongue out,tasting you. Then comes my favorite part. You clean your hair,and some pieces come out. They travel through the holes,landing next to me. I scrape them moving to put them with the rest. I have a large collection of them. I've been collecting them since you were young. I have enough to make a wig out of them. The water ceases,and you leave the view of my holes. I place your hair on my head, strands falling on my face. I inhale deeply,smelling you. I can't wait till your next shower so that I can show you my new hair.
