My Hands Full of Water

CATEGORY

life

The tightness of my hands serves as the foundation on which we build our love upon 

The water that sits within these hand is the accumulation of love that's been given and received over the duration of our relationship

You would think that with the consistency of our love, it would spill over my tightly formed hands

But in reality, while its not obvious from first glance, our love is slowly escaping drop by drop. 

With me being the hopeless romantic I am, I try to defy the laws of physics
I grip my hands tighter as if that will keep what water is left in

Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if the steam of love that poured from our faucet of hope was still flowing at Constant rate 
But somewhere along the plumbing system, we've hit a clogged pipe

Now I'm left alone with my hands tight trying desperately to keep what's left
But of course, we all know what eventually happens to 
hands full of water.....
