Waiting

Waiting

Life is about waiting

 

Waiting for what …

 

                                Up

To grow

To grow

                                     Down

 

Waiting for …

The light to turn green

The water to turn hot

A moment to turn real

A small dream to turn big

The person you are, really, to turn up

 

Waiting for …

 

Your life to begin

Your life to end

 

And in-between all that

You’re waiting for wisdom

For a grain of sand

 

To understand yourself

To understand others

To understand why

 

Life is about waiting

 

To grow up

To grow old

To grow your soul
