I am like water
The way I flow through your fingers
Unable to grasp
Incapable of being kept

I am like water
Essential to every man
Desired
Consumed
Digested and forgotten
And good to the last drop

I am like water
So fluid. So free
So essential to everything
Belonging to nothing
A drop in the sea

I am like water
And all I desire
is to be kept
By anything else..
until that takes ahold-
and we both become mold
