A simple luxury that every woman should indulge in...

Is...Is...Is...A bubble bath...

I think about bubble baths a lot, but I finally decided to write what they are really like since many men don't get the point of this ecstatic luxury...

You enter the bathroom and turn on the tap slowly...and turn it completely to the left so hot steaming water start filling your bathtub...the steam starts to envelop the bathroom...

With a little glint in the eye, you choose which scent you would like to indulge your body in today...lavender or vanilla or cinnamon or peony and so on...

You tap each bottle on the cap and finally choose lavender...the lilac-purple shade attracts you and one sniff into the bottle...you are taken.
Slowly, you proceed to the tub...which is hopefully clean and shining...you pour the lavender body wash and let the scent engulf you...

The tub fills in little by little and there is a purplish tint to the bubbles that start emerging in the tub. First, only the start of the tub is filled but slowly the whole tub is filled with bubbles...big and popping bubbles...
The whole bathroom is emanating of the delicious lavender scent...then you spray some soothing relaxing lavender spray on your body...

And...descend into the shallow depths of the water...immersing inch by inch...until you are completely relaxed underneath the sizzling water...it takes a bit to adjust...but you do..
and when the water surrounds your tense body...it is like heaven...

Each sense is being stimulated...by the overwhelming scent, by the overpowering feel, by the staggering silence, by the companiable solitude, and by the simple taste in the mouth...

What usually makes this better are some candles that gives it such a romantic ambience and you really feel that you are treating yourself...which yo deserve to anyways...

For me, it is the best time to read a romantic novel while thinking and sighing about your own accomplished reveries and the ones that are yet to be accomplished...

BUT...there is a price...and the price is the constant charade of knocks on the door and others getting impatient to use the bathroom and wondering what you could possibly be doing for an hour...and when this happens...you just sit right up and jump and...lazily rub your eyes and proceed to open the door and get on with your day...! ;)

Those times...

Those times seem long gone
The ones we spent together
Talking for hours
Not heeding to the clock
Where did those times go?
The moments we refused
To spend apart

Every second spent with you
Was just so precious
Because you left
An imprint on my heart
I always thought
There would be more times
Similar to our memorable past

Some feelings are meant
To be expressed
While others are meant
To be suppressed
But…I will express all
From the first moment
I set my eyes on you

So you can guard your heart
As long as you want
And veil the words
That prick your heart
These words long to be uttered
And when the time is right
They will finally drip

I will be there yet
You will follow me here
To give me the love story
I pensively want
You will turn my
Fantasies into realities
And finally give me what I want
