# 12 The Waiting Game

I stand still

I stand alone

With shadows lurking in my eyes

The tears I've shed, filled with regret

Won't bring comfort to this unholy night


I breathe deep

I breathe carefully

I'm sure that if I'd forget my manners - my heart couldn't take it

And I wish not to break it

So, I wait... I wait

Although I hate

This nothingness

This lack of fate

I have to own

I have to try

But now.. I'm just waiting

For my time...
