Infinity Of Long Nights Poem by Lashae Bell

Living on borrowed time
Searching, awaiting, looking for a sign
Haunted by these emotions inside
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
Making decisions based on fear
But will I ever find peace here?
My motivation is supposed to be love
Instead mine is the search thereof
The sweetest sadness remains in my eyes
I've never done well with goodbyes
Maybe time will awaken my soul
Maybe the space will force me to let go
Don't know what to expect, what I will behold
Patiently waiting for these cards to unfold
Not ready to release, but feel I'm missing so much
Having my breath taken by the power of a touch
Stuck on the ground, I was expecting a long flight
I've been here for an infinity of long nights
