She sank into the tub. Water on the verge of being icey. She was burning up in this summer heat. A single candle flickered on the corner of the tub. It felt hotter inside than it did out, but with no air conditioning or electricity a cold bath sounded heavenly. The rooms were empty and unfamilar at the time. He layed with her in the dark, in the tub. They were full of water kisses. She'd pick up the water in her palms and let it crawl down her arms, back into the tub. Over and over, the dripping was peaceful and it echoed throughout. With the air being so warm, the water felt like a chilling fall's breeze dancing along their skin. It was peaceful in that momment. Beautiful.
She sinks into the tub. Water hot enough to burn. She went numb. She sits soaking, staring. The lights are bright, her eyes hardly open-dry. She stares. is the time going by. its empty in here.
