Shower ready at all hours

The world is cold
Your promises warm
As time grows old
You’re worth is gold
The sullied to transform
And the desolate to console
I wait in your threshold

Dirty skin on porcelain

Filthy as a mongrol
Fog at a turn of the knob
Heat my bones in a steamroll,
And soothe every heartthrob
Within this rainstorm
It is safe to sob
There’s no need to perform

Dry towels on the tiles

Remade Tenfold
I feel freeform
Euphoria Untold
Your cleanliness bold
Even turned lukewarm
You shame the washbowl
To me, you’ve condoled

My pain funneled down the drain
