Waiting

A Poem By CGT

Amorphous, monotonous waiting for a change

Something to mold me to what I want to be

What I should be

Waiting for a change a reason to be

Something to make me feel new, make me feel real

Give me a reason, something to feel like I belong to be

Here in this life, here in this body, here in this world

Why do I live, if I live for nothing at all

When I live to sit here

Gazing, watching, waiting, for something to change. For me to change

I’m bearing witness to the cycle of time

The repeating line, that is this life

Laying still expectant of answers to flood my mind

Lack of clarity, understanding, waiting for something to change

Something to change

Sitting saddled with this lack of originality

Waiting for a way to escape the cycle

Waiting for a purpose to reach me

Never having the ability to find it for myself

Helpless in this wave of insomnia, this lack of rest

Stressed and searching hoping for a way to break out

When will my time come to feel like I’m needed

When will I be able to succeed in something

Live for something

Have a reason to be here
