Waiting
Seems as if I have waited
In line or on hold on the phone
Where blatant disrespect is shown
No longer fast service to show
courteous appreciation
Just wait, wait, wait
Without consideration
Take a number
Life is what this is
Waiting for something
Or anything
Or nothing
Waiting for the other shoe to drop
Waiting to see
Waiting to hear
No longer is waiting a past time
Waiting is all the time
Take a number
Do not have a seat
Just wait
Stress high
I no longer know what
I am waiting for
In this waiting game
When I get to the front of the line
The well has run dry
Or there’s a sign on the desk
Saying OUT to Lunch
My life is a take a number life
I have no reason to wait anymore
There is no wait left in me
The other shoe has fallen
The line is much too long
Time is up, the building closed
And now my time has come
I get on the line to talk with God
He asked me what I did while here
I waited, I exclaimed
I waited
I waited to be born
I waited in line to die
But most of all I waited...
On Christmas every year
Hello we are transferring your call ....
Hello, someone will be with you shortly
All of our representatives
are busy helping other customers
Your wait time should be
approximately twenty minutes
Hello, God
Can you hear me?
I waited..
I was next hello; Buzzzzzz..
