Self Care
Clothes unwashed
Your hair is a mess
Why on earth were you wearing that dress?
Bath tub running
Candles lit
Wash it away, they said
“Don’t have an anxious fit”
Submerged in warmth
That runs over the edge
Keep sinking
Keep sinking
You’re almost there
Under the water, no one knows you’re a wreck
Not too far now
Leave room for a breath
Wash it away, they said
The liquid covers your mouth
Nothing like a bath
To remove that self doubt
Wash your face
Dry your eyes
Though under the water
No tears can be cried
Keep quiet now, girl
Dry off
Act normal
You know you’re probably just being “hormonal”
