Walls Closing In

 



You keep pouring though I’m filled to the brim, 

Oblivious to the situation. 

It’s a time of my life that’s sink or swim 

And I’m up to my gills in hydration. 

I have much to give and want to give it 

With talents I’m game to put to the test, 

But if there is peace I want to live it, 

Not gasp for air as the walls are compressed. 

I realize that friction can lead to fire 

But it does not work as life’s driving force. 

Still, I intend to walk this shaky wire 

And soldier on till I master the course. 

Out of the dust a diamond will burn bright.

Here it comes – watch me sparkle in the light.
