I was Sitting here
Waiting
Waiting for the world to inspire
Inspire me to write
To laugh
To do
Waiting for the world to tell me
How
How to motivate
How to do
What needs to be done
How to create a world to be won
Nothing
I waited
For nothing
I waited to be acted upon
I had no reason to be here
Then one day the motivation struck
Just for 10 minutes
10 minutes
Is all you needed
You appeared in my life
Like a vision in a dream
I had only planned strife
You put a stop to that scheme
You said I was worth it
In your eyes a gleam
You gave me a motivation
I’ve had never before seen
Never mattered location
You opened for me a new door
This life the old me envies
My heart no longer poor
Happiness no longer on a distant shore
Ten minutes and all this was spun into motion
Inside my head you started a commotion
A storm now rages inside
Emotions that burst forth
From a long ago place
You inspired me to write
To dream
To laugh
To do
To live
No longer am I waiting to put effort into action
You’ve given me the how
How to do what needs to be done
You’ve started creating
A world to be won
The world we needed
And this world is better than I could have imagined.
And all it took was ten minutes unimpeded
To my angel
