When I undress to shower,

It’s like revealing my thoughts

To anyone who cares

And so I lock the door

And lock my heart

From exposing itself

I pull the shower curtain shut

Like I hide behind my smiles

And the hollow, fake laughs

The water spurts out

Soaking my face and hair

And I pretend like it can hide the tears

Sometimes I think about

Pulling the plug and halting

 The water that flows downward

But I know I can’t do that

So I simply shiver in the

Warm heat of the water

Do you ever want to pull the plug?

Stop the water from existing?

Have you ever felt that?

Maybe you have

And maybe you haven’t

But someday you will

And when that day comes

Just stay strong and let it be

Because the world needs your water

Someone is in the same place

Tormented with letting it go

And staying there

I’ve been there too

And you have to be wise

Or the water will drain

You will no longer be here

And this is a wonderful place

Just sometimes it’s bad

Each droplet is unique

Each person is different

Each life is diverse

But no matter what

No matter what

You really do matter

So don’t be afraid to undress

And reveal your deepest feelings

Because once it’s out

It’s out, and you should

Lock the door, don’t get me wrong

But don’t guard your feelings too much

Or you won’t really be living

So you’ll try to pull the plug

Don’t hide behind curtains

Be strong and amazing and proud

You are you and you matter

So let the water forever fall
