In the Shower

Naked in the shower,
Water flowing over me
As hot as I can bear;
Scalding my skin,
Masking my tears,
Drowning my cries,
Hardening my heart.

your poem is powerful yet short. i wrote a longer poem on the same subject. So difficult, right?

Such a sad and lonely feeling piece but well written too. It says a lot in just a few words. Nicely done.
