You've been waiting a long time.
Waiting for the lights to go down
waiting for the phone call that never comes
wating for backup
wating for the bus
waiting for feedback
(more)
waiting for the news
waiting at the checkpoint
waiting for justice.
You get tired of waiting
your patience is frayed and you're just
barely holding on to sanity
with both hands, tight.
There's no more time to wait
the bus isn't coming this time,
you'll just have to walk.
Make the call, make a decision even
if you have to flip a coin, call heads
or tails, push past the armed guard
he's on your land, not
the other way around.
And one last thing: don't wait
for love to find you
love is closer than you think
like yellow crocuses just beneath the snow.
