Waiting In Line
Waiting in line
Everyone’s waiting in line
We are waiting to die
We don’t know the order
Or the speed
In which it proceeds
We don’t know when or how
Just that it will come
Some people live through life
Hoping death wont come
But knowing he wants everything done
Before it arrives
Some people wish it would come faster
Waiting each day in the line
Not caring what he leaves unfinished
Who he leaves behind
Some people just let it flow
Not looking toward the future
Just dealing with the present
Forgetting the past
The line moves on
Where do you stand?
