Waiting
I feel like I’m waiting, in a dark room
But there’s a light behind me
I sit on the floor, just waiting
Wanting so much to be doing something
I feel like someone is at the door, but will not knock
And that un-nerves me
I wait for him to knock-
Will he? Maybe he will not knock
I am waiting for something to feel perfect
But it does not
The room is dark, sometimes cold
It enfolds me, pressing in on me
The darkness dares me to look behind to the light
But condemns me before I know what to do
And I feel lost, in the dark
But not alone
Never alone
Just waiting.
