water days

water running down my face

to land in a lake 

hold my hands tight into fists 

tonight, there’s little fight in me 


decide to give up myself

there’s nothing else to give 

i’m empty of everything 

i thought id need to live 


push my heart down 

because it’s more than i can take 

give up any hope for filling 

this incredible empty space 


close my eyes tight 

to open them another day 

when a hand is in mine 

and it’s the answer to what i prayed
