stuck in a rut
like a rock in a hole
a wandering stone
who's forgotten to roll
waiting for a change
with a heavy heart
it seems any moment
my life will finally start
but then i begin to wonder
once i'm finally there
what have i been doing
for all of these years
am i doomed to a life
full of inadequacy
or is there still time to find
my path to destiny?
the stars in the heavens
forever be my guide
if only i should venture to look up
on these long cold winter nights
the answer i'm looking for is
just around the bend
the love all around me
beckons as a friend
the aching in my heart is
a solemn vow
that everything i need is
in the here and now
always be thankful
for every up, down, and turnaround
for in these moments
the truest joys in life can be found
so buckle up and enjoy the ride
there's nothing to fear with
the universe at your side
