Water

Water is healing. Water is healing. I knew where I needed to go. I started filling the tub with hot water. I poured too much coconut bubble bath in the water. I needed the lovely smell and the sweet bubbles. The sound of the water hitting the tub instantly calmed me and soon I was sitting in the delicious water. The moment my skin touched the hot water I felt warm deep down to my bones. I love that first wonderful dip when you get goose bumps and a big sigh escapes your lips. The water was consuming me and I let it. I laid down and put my head and ears under the water. The world vanished. It was just the water and me. My mind full of what if's and what now's slowed. I stayed and stayed. I love the water. The sound. The change you feel when you are done. The feel. My heart needed to say a few things. I was carrying around too much. So I talked and cried to people that are no longer here. They listened and understood. I needed their help. Prayers are humbling and always being said in my heart. The water was drained, clean clothes put on, and people kissed goodnight. I drifted off feeling warm and feeling that I had my answer to that prayer in the water.
