I lost myself today.
standing in the rain
my umbrella dropped, forgotten
half submerged in the puddle
my boots squelching in the mud.
dancing to the rhythmic patter
each drop washing away
the molecules of pretence
mascara streaming down my cheeks.
inhibitions, fears, anxiety
gradually dissolved
by the universal solvent
leaving me naked.
leaving me, me.
