She sits waiting
Like a desperate clock
She waits, for something good
For some good news
But that doesn't come
She sits waiting
Her life flashing before her
"Youre suppose to be strong." Im 17 and Im suppose to hold everything inside, because its not time to let go. My fathers dying of cancer. Todays his 5th week in the hospital. How do you expect me to hold everything without letting go.
If time could be rewound, I would rewind ten years past
To see you one more time, and tell you what you’ve missed
I know you’re up there somewhere
Out of sight
But I want to hear your voice, I want a kiss goodnight
Looking around, I am the girl that people don't point out,
Until that day when my hair started falling out.
I was the white girl who lived a perfect life,
I had a bright future and a fella to make me his wife.
Behind me trails the overcast fading into a storm. I came so far from where I began. Adulthood began with a raging shower packed with lightening, thunder, vigorous winds and darkness.
Challenges we face
But we make the pace
The answers inside they lie
But the time we cannot buy
Sometimes it takes time
Letting it settle is no crime
I do not understand
Why people want what they cannot have
Why people treat the ones closest bad
Why people demand respect when they give none in return
