Lying here in this tub
the water is hot
but I am not
My knees start to ache
as my mind
begins to awake
Troubles oozing thru
the pores of my soul
Who knows if your whole
Doors of opportunity
begin to appear
One door closes
as another opens
I knock on each
confusion sets in
No one can see
the things that appear to me
Water drips on my toes
reminding me that i'm still alive
I pull the plug
water begins to flow
Cleansing my soul
I step out
feel like a medicine man
coming out of his trance
Which doors are for me
I must see
