Soak

Soaking away the worries
washing away the tears
leaving behind the hurries
drowning all my fears.
Hot water calming
candlelight fills the room
underwater sounding
comforting like a womb.
Meditation finds me
unsteady feelings relax away
peaceful, calm and free
praying for ease to stay.
Naked, raw and real
it is a moment of truth
sacred space to heal
all the pain of my youth.

Love that poem and the photo is SUPERB!!!! I assume it's yours???
Oops.....silly me.....just saw the permission granted. Still.....the 2 together.....awesome. Hope you are soaking and healing!!
Makes me once more lament that I don't have a tit tub, but a shallow tub that leaves much to be desired in the soaking department...maybe some day.
May your soak bring you peace...;-)
