I don’t want you to hear uncertainty in my voice
and how it breaks and shakes everytime I speak.
I don’t want you to see me with the candle light
while I read the map and try to make the right move.
corners are for the weak, they say, as I sit and watch the world go by
I beg to differ, for there is such a thing as the right time, and I trust the universe to play this game with me
one day I will take center stage, grab you by the hand,
and we will run away
to tomorrow
‘What are we missing?’ They ask among themselves. ‘We’ve done our darnedest to become our best & it feels we’re missing something.’
They are many, but they are ones, individually standing in the crowd, separate & lonely.
They keep asking what they’re missing.
