I wait still
Knowing
There is no hope
I wait still
Knowing
It’s in vain
It keeps going
Don’t know why
It keeps rowing
Don’t know how
I wait still
Knowing
There is no hope
I wait still
Knowing
It’s in vain
It keeps going
Don’t know why
It keeps rowing
Don’t know how
She shone
Bright
In the endless blank sky
Burning gases in fury
Fury and loneliness
The brightest in the sky
‘Twas worshiped and adored
By beings she knew not
They thought she was all mighty and powerful
While the lone star believed
She was a speck in the dust
Air
Sucking out of my lungs
Breath
Running short of
Vacuum
Filling every crevice
Space
Finding no space
Life
Slowly fading
Soul
Vanishing nowhere
Saying no to something you’d kill for
Cravings you can’t control
Desire you can’t put an end to
Longing, trying too hard to resist
Yearning dying too bad to combust
Wish, wistful to be fulfilled
Aspiration strongly to be achieved
So many wants, wanting
Goals waiting
Targets raising, yet uncared
Stakes higher than ever
Yet there’s no stir, no emotion
Not a hope or answer
Not an inch of progress
Not a spur of belief
Faith is gone
Life is bleak and dark
Reason is lost
So is the purpose
What’s there to be?
What’s there to exist?
If there’s no sense in living
No chance in surviving
One day, I’ll breathe the air so free
One day, I’ll jump high with glee
One day, I’ll bury my tears deep
One day, I’ll let all my joy creep
One day, I’ll smile without a lacking
One day, I’ll be proud of my content packing
One day, I’ll be weakness resistant
One day, I’ll make self-esteem my assistant
One day, I’ll overcome all my fears
One day, I’ll have happy tears
One day, perfectly tame my tongue
One day, I’ll get my guilt hung
One day, I’ll feel the bright sunshine
One day, I’ll boldly say, everything is fine
One day, I’ll drive away all my sick thoughts
One day, I’ll heal my heart full of droughts
One day, I’ll claim it’s all mine
