Water is pouring,
Spraying all over,
Her hand reaches out,
Turns the knob,
Shutting it off.
Satisfied and clean,
She goes to the glass door,
Separating her from the rest of the world,
And pulls.
Nothing happens.
Her brow narrows,
She pulls a bit harder.
No movement.
She pulls once more.
Nothing happens.
The glass door is stuck.
Calm,
She calls out for help.
Her family doesn’t come.
She calls out a bit louder,
No one comes.
She calls out once more.
Her family doesn’t come.
They won’t be saving her.
She has to save herself.
Breathing deeply,
She pulls the door as hard as she can.
Squeak!
The door slides!
The door moved!
She’s free!
She gets out,
Glad that she is no longer a prisoner,
A prisoner of the shower tub.
