A Song Waiting To Be Sung

         In the darkness and silence
It so patiently waits
But even I don’t know why
It persistently hesitates

Is it shyness or fear or I wonder
Does it question its worth
Does it feel it will be greeted with
Sadness or overwhelming Mirth

Could it be that it wants its timing
To be perfect when it arrives
All I know is that inside the heart
It’s a song that still thrives

One of these days just maybe
It will burst into existence by surprise
And just maybe it will triumph and joyful
Tears will fall from everyone’s eyes

But for now at least we’ll have to wait
As it remains to stay deep within the lungs
And it will continue to be just
A Song Waiting To Be Sung
