skin.

she rises out of a lukewarm bath
her skin goosepimpled and shaking
when cold air hits her warm, wet
cleansed skin

hands clinging to her arms
her hair mats over her face
releasing a new shower of cold drops on her
scared skin

she hates the early morning
the shock of cold to her body
because like every day before she steps in
to new skin
