I step into the shower. If this was a book, the almost-too-hot water would be a metaphor, for the emotional warmth or passion or intimacy I’m missing. Maybe it is a metaphor. Maybe it’s just cold outside. Either way, the water sears my skin, But god, at least I’m feeling something.

My Shower
I step into the shower. If this was a book, the almost-too-hot water would be a metaphor, for the emotional warmth or passion or intimacy I’m missing. Maybe it is a metaphor. Maybe it’s just cold outside. Either way, the water sears my skin, But god, at least I’m feeling something.
For realsies though, why is it so cold
