I’m waiting in line, wasting my time for things that won’t come, though they are mine. Pretend that I’m fine, should I draw a line? Don’t wish to run, but I think I’m just done. Feelings I can’t shake, they keep me awake, the list has increased, how much more can I take? With so much at stake, I try not to break, I miss the sun, but I think I’m just done. With tired eyes I’ll still see it through. Exasperated sighs in breaths I drew. I broke the ties, but I’ve got some glue. Searching the skies and looking for you. I’m waiting so long, maybe I’m wrong I can’t walk away; my legs aren’t that strong. Alone in a throng, I still try to prolong, but it never begun, and I think I’m just done. The flowing tears should extinguish the flame, but it’s been years and it still burns the same. Doe eyes sees the fears and treats it like a game, then it all disappears am I to blame? I’ll wait forever, I’m not too clever, passing me by, but never say never. I can not severe this painful endeavour, I’m always the one but I think I’m just done.

Waving The White Flag
I’m waiting in line, wasting my time for things that won’t come, though they are mine. Pretend that I’m fine, should I draw a line? Don’t wish to run, but I think I’m just done.
