The kitchen faucet begins to leak.
Drip, drip, drip, drip.
That constant annoyance of my every day life.
The everlasting sickening feeling in my gut as I
Wait, wait, wait, wait
For that
Drip, drip, drip, drip.
Splash, splash, splash, splash.
The loud droplets of water as they hit the cold, stainless steel.
The time drags on
Tick, tick, tick, tick
And I
Wait, wait, wait, wait
For that next
Drip, drip, drip, drip.
Splash, splash, splash, splash.
Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.
