Somber Shower Poem by krissi b'williams

im nude in the bath
sitting here, while unde the shower
as i cry, yet laugh
you got such amazing power

the tier
thats here
up upon, my head
i wonder why it still hurts so much
bcuz my heart is broken, its dead
my body misses your touch

the crown
you placed on my head
you once said
that i was your princess
why not now?

the hot water surrounding my body
as the hot water falls from above
i wish when i remove the stopper, from the drain
that all my memories, and all this pain
would go with the water, as it leaves the tub...

this tier that sits here
its not made with jewels
its made with promises broken
for a senseless fool
its a fake token
for all the lies spoken

as i sit here nude, willing the pain to just leave
and i beg for it to just go
so that i may bereave
the man i used to love and know
the shower falls just like my tears
i no longer have the will power
not the strength
im filled with so much fear
that htis somber shower
will always be waiting here
