The shower is safe Its quiet but just loud enough to muffle the scary thoughts, the ones that are loud. All the time. Sometimes I wish I could slip down the drain. I wish the water could melt my skin away and dissolve my bones. I wish it would leave me with a single eye and a singe ear. The eye would enjoy the darkness that stretches all around The ear would enjoy the thump of the water and the sound of nothing else I wouldn't have to feel anything anymore. Because eyes and ears don't have souls.
