To wait for my time?
To renegade, dally, constantly on my mind.
The throes of not getting what you desire.
List of neediness, longings that leads to clunker.
Existence is a blessing.
Living is misery.
I wanted perfect.
I got parfait.
Life’s still pleasing, at least I got covered in cream.
Then a bit of Sun.
I started melting away.
So I realized. It shouldn’t be the head-start.
Will I maintain to the end?
Bustling and Hustling.
Sudor soaking me in Winter.
Even in Summer, when I am to sit at the seashore.
To listen to Seagulls. I felt cold.
When will that time come?
Desires turning reality.
Vanity turning Futility.
To wait for my time?
Maybe, maybe not.
That I’ll decide very soon.
