And Then Life Begins
I’m breathing but not living
I’m watching how life goes by
As I just stand there
Trapped
Unable to scream for help
I stay shackled inside of my house
Inside of my head
I want to go out and experience life,
But I don't move.
I have no clue.
Everyone is so afraid of change
But I welcome it with open arms.
As I stay in my room at night,
In a peaceful abyss,
I have a conversation with the moon.
She tells me that she only shines
When the sun lets her.
Only in the night,
She illuminates the dark
With the Sun’s light
She tells me that one day,
I will have my time to radiate
I must be patient
And then my life will begin
