I

R

N

I

N

G

just like water…

pouring all my insides out

but never getting anywhere

unless I shout (spout it out)

and I’m

R

U

N

N

I

N

G

 in this life of mine

running,

running,

out of time

and I’m losing every drop of me

but nobody can see

This vessel that I be

is almost empty…empty…

Footnote:

I have had the first verse sitting around for years and just finished 2nd and 3rd verse today ...every second is a drip lost and I didn't want to waste another by not finishing it.

Kay, yes, in each drip we lose time and if we don't finish what we start we may never have a chance to. I liked the way you created this writing because it called out the importance of the message you were relating to the reader. The message in your voice carries truth and sincerity. A Great Job!
