Waiting for life
Waiting for understanding
Waiting to feel whole and worthwhile
Trying to conquer
Trying to be strong
Trying to discover and to love
Fearing the unknown
Fearing the alternatives
Fearing nothing will change and everything will
Longing for peace
Longing for closeness
Longing to shed addictions and girth
Avoiding tomorrow
Avoiding yesterday
Avoiding the people who care
Hoping against hope
Hoping time heals
Hoping the nightmares will calm
Waiting to trust
Waiting to accept
Waiting and wanting to be real
