Now We Wait
Silvery light cascades into a deep abyss
Like a shimmering waterfall of jewels
Illuminating the creatures of the dark
Showing them the way out of there despair.
They attempt to climb the slippery walls
But they fail, sliding down with a squeak
After every few inches gained.
They give up,
And the only way for them to escape,
Is for them to adapt themselves
And in time, they will
But for now, they will remain in the abyss
Waiting for an answer
That will never come.
Slowly, theyβll adapt to their surroundings
And get out of their own darkness
Emerging into the light of day.
So now....
We wait.
It may not totally make sense but in the end Iβm trying to convey that the creatures in the darkness are us.
