waiting


Waiting for the night to come.
Waiting for the light to disappear.
Waiting for the cold to make me numb.
Waiting for the thick mist to clear.
Waiting for the new day called tomorrow.
Waiting for the tears to dry.
Waiting for you to say hello.
Waiting for the night to end.
Waiting for the darkness to die out.
Waiting for the sun wake up
Waiting for you 
Waiting for the fear to hurt.
Waiting for the pain
Waiting for my world to change
Waiting for my sleeping pill.
I’ve been waiting for all my life.
For you to never say goodbye.
