Nicole, 4/4

The sun rises

The sun sets

Another day gone

Heads down

And when we wake up, there’s a new page on the calendar

Blink again

And another journey around the sun has us one year older

But we stay still

Not moving

Alive but barely living

Waiting for another year to pass

Waiting for something to come along

Always waiting for something else

Something that will give the passing time meaning

So that when we look back

We will see that it wasn’t all for nothing

That we did something good

That all those days and weeks and months and years that flashed before our eyes

Won’t be forgotten once we are

But we are still waiting

Always waiting
