D I R T Y
Covered in filth
From head to toe
I scrub a dub dub
In my little white tub
My skin turns red
But it's not enough
I claw at my skin
Relieve me of this sin
It festers inside
Tearing me apart
The urges are strong
Feels right but so wrong
So I'm in the shower
Because I'm a dirty girl
So in my tub I will stay
Until I get all the dirt to go away
From head to toe
I scrub a dub dub
In my little white tub
My skin turns red
But it's not enough
I claw at my skin
Relieve me of this sin
It festers inside
Tearing me apart
The urges are strong
Feels right but so wrong
So I'm in the shower
Because I'm a dirty girl
So in my tub I will stay
Until I get all the dirt to go away

Dirty on the inside cannot be washed off, but everyone wants to play in the sandbox once in a while. You just need to unchain your heart and unshackle your mind. Too much of anything is bad but in love there is no sin. You just need to stop scrubbing so hard and let love lather you up in all the right places...

Yes that's kind of how I meant it to be. The "dirt" I was wanting to wash of was more inside that outside. I could use a bit of love than cuz I'm just latherin up in hate right now and it's not very nice

That will pass. Time heals most wounds and the anger will subside. Don't be angry at yourself for being human. Everyone sins!

Forget about your polka dots of dirt, get outta your rub a dub tub & go outside & twirl & whirl! Everything will fly right outta your mind! Oh my GAWD, I'm such a nut🌰! I love this, it's quite fun! Another fine poem,➰

Red, a very deep write.. expressing what's going on inside, can be cleansing in it's self.. but sometimes it takes time, and patience.. it will happen in due time, sometimes when you least expect it.. so just hang in there, i hope things get better.. with love, and respect..

the dirt never goes away - until we see the dirt in a different way - it's not really dirt or sin - a simple wipe then in the bin - all of a sudden then we're clean - but the dirt returns from where it's been - (lol) I should be writing this down :-)
excellent write - I am dirty too :-)
