You have to wait to enter the world
Fingers, toes to come unfurled
You have to wait to come of age
Teenage hormones filled with rage
You have to wait to graduate.
Take the time to find your mate
You have to wait for the results
The doctors have to all consult
You have to wait to know what’s true
You have to know what’s right for you
You have no time to sit around
This waiting game is quite profound
You have to wait, it’s so absurd
Wait really is a four letter word

Illuminated only by the glow

Of a street lamp filtered

Through shaded window panes

Her shadow danced

Ethereally floating about in

Endless circles of rhythm as

Silent music played the

Unheard melodies of her mind

Why do we spend life
Always rushed, in a hurry
Obsessing with things
Then we sit and we worry

When all of this time
It’s been out of our hands
Our course has been laid
We are part of God’s plan

Drawing you in
Taunting, Teasing
Until you are spent
Daunting, Ceasing
No sense can be made
Hanging, Grasping
She swallows you whole
Haranguing, Gasping
Her darkness descends
Cloaking, Hovering
Blinding your mind
Choking, Covering
Til nothing is left
Barren and Void
Insanity lingers
Empty, Destroyed
