I was standing in the shower
the steam wrapping around me
like a lover, the pounding
water massaging my back.
My eyes were closed, so I
didn't see you step in
behind me. I felt no fear
when you touched my face,
then slit my throat,
only shock. I looked up
at you, then down to my
blood running down my
chest and stomach. I
put your hand on my
womb before I slid
down the wall. Your
eyes widen in understanding,
and I see nothing anymore.
