Waiting… waiting… waiting

Waiting… waiting… waiting
I stand and wait
With wishful hope
That today will be
The day I long forI tap my foot
I check my watch
My heart beats
As I wait unsureWill today be the day?
I ask myself so quietly…
Then I take a long drawn breath
As I watch the changing worldBut soon it becomes clear
As the sky slowly changes
And as the light fades away
Darkness speaks so loudlyToday is not the day I long for
My wishful hope has gone unanswered
My heart slowly begins to crawl
As I sigh and pout in sorrowPerhaps tomorrow will be better
I tell myself in reassurance
But in truth I am so tired of waiting,
I just want to live my life…

Matty the journey while tough only makes you appreciate the end result so much more. That which comes easy to us is soon forgotten. Stay the course and never give up
One foot in front of the other Matty. Never lose sight of your journey this far and reflect on the progress you have already made.
The road may seem long but am sure the world will open up for you in time.
