waiting.
June 27, 2021
We Live a lie,
while we live to die,
waiting, never doing.
Afraid to make a change,
worried we’re seen as strange,
waiting, never doing.
Walking blind,
saying, “never mind,”
waiting,
never
doing.
Sitting stagnate,
just a fragment,
of what we could truly be.
It’s our own demise,
when our passion dies.
It leaves us sitting,
waiting
to
die.

oh this reinds me of nicole, one of my characters
You know the aged old saying, "If you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything?" Well, the same is true of living. You have to live for something or someone and you must know passion. Otherwise you will feel purposeless, and you'll be living, waiting to die.
