Shower 

The colour of you rains blue nails

over my wooden and naked body.

Memories drop into me, hammering

every moment deep into me, forcing

me to scream out in anguish.

You continue to wash over me,

tempting me to rub you into me.

I clutch myself tightly to keep you

close, but I feel you quickly slip

between my fingers. I watch you bleed

and land at my feet. I look down and wish

you could crawl into me one last time.
