My mind never stops,
Another voice wanting to be heard,
From day one I was taught to listen.
Never waiting for me to catch up.
Everyday we’re learning,
With every question,
There is an answer.
Why wait?
I could die.
Did you put food on my table?
How did it get there?
Did he say love?
Watching TV till late,
Listening to music until I sleep.
Finding love in another,
Why can’t I accept the answers that are in front of me?
Who said the sun would rise?
I find myself in darkness at night.
Taking what I’m given,
Like a pill, I’m not easily taken.
You said you would make me better,
So why do I hurt?
Could it be not waiting for answers?
Knowing what I want.
