shower scenes



i pretended i couldn't hear
when you said you had to go home

i knew this time
it was goodbye
and not goodnight

i turned the water hotter
to compensate for the iciness in your words

peeking thru the curtain i see you write
"i love you"
in the steamed mirror

i bury my head in the scalding water
hoping to wash my head of you

like you've washed your hands of me

Absolutely vivid....still waiting on the book dear. This was a interlude on Sade's next album.
