When Is My Time to Shine?

I'm waiting, and waiting but my time just won't come, I'm working hard, but it's not enough, I feel like I'm stuck in a rut, I keep trying, and trying but nothing seems to work. I feel so lost and alone, My future feels so dark, I ask myself each day, When will my time be here? But the answer's always the same, I don't know when my time will come, I feel like I'm running out of hope, My future's looking so glum. I try to stay positive but it's hard to keep my head up high, I feel like I'm just spinning my wheels and I don't know why, I keep asking myself, When will my time be here? I'm starting to realize that my time may never come, And that thought is too much to bear, It feels like a ton of lead in my heart, I feel like giving up hope. I feel like my life is a waste, I feel like there's no point in going on, No reason to live in this place, So maybe I'll just give up. And let the darkness take over, For what's the point in trying, When my future's nothing but a blur. ©® Coker Favour A.
