Like Water In My Hands

Holding on for a little while,
When a little while is never enough.
Wishing I could find some way
To make the inevitable not so tuff.

Grasping,
Holding,
Wishing,
Yet knowing

There is no way to hold on.
Gradually, slowly dripping away,
Praying to God daily,
"Just one more day!"

Slowly
Seeping,
My heart
Weeping

Like water in my hands,
I can't hold onto you.
And like living without water,
What in the world am I going to do?\
