Alive

I go about my everyday life
Trying so hard to concentrate
But nothing is the same nothing
I’m usually up and out and about
Much to do world’s to conquer
Music to write and songs to sing
House needs attending, cat’s need food
But all is just a silly pretence
I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for the click
The sounds that say’s an E-Mails here
Click, click, click, click
No! It’s just another lot of junk adverts
Click , click, click, click
A friend invites me out for tea
Click, click, click, click
A meeting to attend to and respond
Click, click, click, click
My theatre tickets have arrived
Click, click, click, click
It’s him, it’s him, it’s him 
The world awakens and my spirits fly
Every word digested, every thought, every line
My heart pounds my senses roar
The words so what I want to hear
I am once more ALIVE! ALIVE! ALIVE!

Daviad is right....this is a crescendo-like write! I love the raw honesty of you waiting for the ONE to contact you and all the mundane things u do in between.....I guess I can relate...I am just not that honest with myself. Hope u are gearing up for a fantastic week. ....Gotta get my Solstice Fan Club together....Love ya, Gwendolen
