THE WASH


Eyes open
5:45 am
The day begins.....
I want to scrub my skin of you
I swear
Fill the air with some rare perfume
To cover up the stench of stale breaths and soiled words you left behind
Maybe find a vat of bleach to reach places unseen
Kill the germ infested dreams that you created
Simply stated I want to start with a blank slate
Erase your face and exfoliate the memory from my pores
Until it is no more
And I am washed
Clean
