Like Water

by Melina Raven Maness Diebold

Like 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
