I have waited for so long
Its been a long time coming
Same old day and routines
That arrive with each morning
Same old typical weather
Nothing ever seems to change
Life still goes on around me
And in my heart you still remain
Everything seems to have stopped
But people keep running around
Who is left to pick me up
When I fall and hit the ground
Naked is my soul bared
Fragile is the hearts desires
But the devil is making my rules
And everyday he breathes fire
With poetry deep in hibernation
Poetry has been my lost in me
My outlet has seen barren times
Like a ship that’s lost at sea
