in the bathtub

yours truly sitting in the bathtub can be dangerous, especially in deep thought especially when there is such strong emotion as tonight the water falling onto my knees as i’m hunched over on the floor of the tub just to slip off and join the cycle in the drain my face is reddened from how much crying i’ve done then, funny enough i couldn’t tell if i was still this seems like a tradition of once a month, i’ll just sit in the tub around 11PM and just let everything loose from that day. the hissing from the now turning cold water seemed to catch my attention, though looking around inside the tub, from the curtains to the soap bottles sitting in order turning off the water, and stepping out of the bathtub to dry off myself checking the clock on the wall reading. 1:27. i’ve been in the bathtub for a bit longer than expected.
