23

by Shonda Creemer

rain beating on my window

Where is my angel near?
Hearing what I have to say,
or just waiting for my inspiration?

lost, yet visible

staying inside the lines
is sometimes hard to do
when you know their boundaries

wanting this part of life to curve
to change the wall
break all the rules

so distracted
by unwilling restlessness

this vision of empty pages
called fate

not wanting to be filled,
instead yearning
for this smooth blackness
to scramble over it

mutter its words and thoughts
in a single movement
towards it's goal of fullness

and I wait my turn

"staying inside the lines is sometimes hard to do when you know their boundaries" how true is this! I love this piece! :P

We are all waiting, but I assure you that you won't wait forever. =)
