Like Water by Melina Raven Maness DieboldLike Water
running through my hands
can't get a grip
and hold on tight
It's my dream to drink
just a sip
just a swig
But my cup is empty
With water ever leaking
dripping away
into the earth
where I can't bring it back
The sun shuns my mouth's desire
urging and pulling
each trickle away
while I stay so thirsty 04/24/2003 Author's Note: Mina's blue. :(
