the cold water
hits me like bullets
i close my eyes
feeling every drop
because this is all i get
maybe for a second
i feel at peace
i focus on the scorching water
but when i open my eyes again
my peace washes away
like the dirt on my knees.

shower
the cold water
hits me like bullets
i close my eyes
feeling every drop
because this is all i get
maybe for a second
i feel at peace
i focus on the scorching water
but when i open my eyes again
my peace washes away
like the dirt on my knees.
