Illumination

I am still here waiting Waiting for something to happen I am still here waiting Waiting for you to come Christmas has come and gone And here I am still waiting on the wet lawn Daybreak stares desperately in my eyes As the elements thunders in the sky The music is still playing on the hill And I just cannot keep still I kept looking out the window As if you were coming to meet me It’s like this saga will never end It is finally going to make me bend Can destiny be so unkind? That it cannot give me a Bligh Sometimes I hold my head down And I feel water dripping from my eyes I have been waiting, and I am still waiting I wonder when you will come So that we can have some real fun The rattling sound of the iron gate Propel me to my feet, and I leaped in anxiety For one moment I thought it was you It was too good to be true And the saga continued because it wasn’t you I escaped the vibrating sound And find a little corner to whisper a little prayer But I could not hear my own voice Because of the pounding music outside I kept looking through the window Waiting for you to come Suddenly a big red truck crept up near the gate And blocked the entire road I read a little into it And I did not make much of it But when I saw the illuminating red light It felt as if danger was creeping by my side That feeling change and it began to feel as if someone was pouring out love and delight And when the light suddenly faded into lime green It felt like a message had just come from Buckingham palace Telling me to get up and go or was the message telling me to get ready for the show? It felt like a scene in the great Gatsby show Three lime green light and one white light fade on the front of the truck Was it Santa passing by? Or someone was bidding me goodbye I could see him continuously looking across the water, As the green light illuminating Gatsby’s love for Daisy, The wealth, money, and the American Dream kindled on the big red truck. It lit up the water in the bush on the pond And then it black out suddenly And some came out of the truck All kind of scenario start going around in my head It's as if they were going to tear down the house And use it to dump up the water land It is as if the lights were telling me to go It is that feeling that overshadow you When your dream is thousand of miles away from you. Only the tears I feel in my eyes And your spirit walking by It feels as if I have gone through this stage before When I was walking on the golden shore The sun was penetrating my back and And your spirit was engaged in a deep rooted chat They call it a kind of deja vu And I can mirror it through and through I am here and you are there We have so much to share I am waiting. I am waiting for you.
