always waiting

I am always waiting

no matter what I do

everything takes longer

than it really needs to

I wait for morning to come 

I wait for the day to end

at night I fall asleep

just to wake up and wait again

just when I think I'm finished

the waiting starts once more

at times all of this waiting

is too much to ignore

is it time for supper?

is it time to go to bed?

no, it's time for waiting

for whatever lies ahead

I wait every morning

I wake every night

I wait now and forever

for things to turn out right

I wait for your approval

I wait for answers, too

I wait for everything

what else am I supposed to do?

I am always waiting

for life to go the way I please

I'm begging of you, help me

I'm down on bended knew

one day I will not be here

I'll be at Heaven's holy shore

and the one good thing about it

is I won't have to wait anymore
