In this bathtub
this bathtub
I trace over my skin
And let the water free me
In this bathtub
I am inhumanly gorgeous
And I do not know why
In this bathtub
I scrub my past away
But by the time I'm dressed
She's back

Hello E.K.,
I think I know this feeling well. I often feel like I look my best right out of a shower or bath. I have a smidge of confidence then. Don't know where it comes from or why it's the bath/shower that makes it happen.
I also really love staying in a hot bath as long as possible. Get to relax and just be no one for a while, be unseen and a part of the water for a while.
Thank you for sharing,
Kelsey
