bathroom
raze
when
i
slept
over
at
her
place
,
we
would
go
through
our
before
-bed
personal
hygiene routines
together
,
standing
side
-by-side
at
her
gigantic
desk
of
a
sink
,
half
-naked, peeling
away
what
the
day
had
given
us
,
slipping
into
chemical garments
to
guard
against
the
dirt
of
sleep
.
there
was
a
muted
tenderness
about
it
—
how
we
were
okay
with
being
seen
at
our
least
attractive
,
and
how
that
level
of
trust
, however
skin
-deep, negated
whatever
physical defects
we
thought
we
had
.
we
were
never
more
beautiful
to
each
other
than
in
those
moments
when
we
were
ugly
in
our
own
eyes
.
