BubbleBath*

I dip a toe in, steam rises, my flesh turns red.
It's soothing, this pain.
Heel and to my ankle... slowly.. there you go.
Exhale.
The aroma is fantastic, yet these florescent lights aren't quite doing it for me.
I slide the rest of my bare skin into this scorching abyss.

Exhale again.

My body aches from working,
and I could use the hand of another to rub my body down, from head to toe.
With care, and precision.
Releasing tension from all the right spots.

But here I sit,
in my bubble bath,
alone, where I wouldn't mind some candles or some mood.

I feel rushed, although time has slowed down.
I could use this tension released.

What to do next... ? ;)
