When?

I have to protect it

And I forget

It runs from me, slips

Lost in debt


It seeps from me, gone

I never notice it leaving

And then, all at once, done

I feel so foolish


Once again, I’m without

Days to recover begin

Desert, surrounded in drought

Denial, depression delusion


A limited supply a limited amount

When will I succumb

To the truth, unable to surmount?

Another day passes


When?
