While the hours away
While the hours away..
To have this worry for so long,
Then suddenly realise it has gone.
I sit and while the hours away,
Nothing to think and nothing to say.
It’s strange how consumed
Your mind can become
Your feelings fester and overrun.
Then before you know it
It has disappeared,
Your darkest thoughts
Of what you feared.
Are nothing but a distant memory now,
You want to move on
But don’t know how.
So you sit and while the hours away
Nothing to think and nothing to say.
Physical scars are now what’s left,
Emotionally you feel bereft.
But at least you are still here
To think and feel,
Those fears were thoughts
That never became real.
