Anticipation

I’m waiting for my life to unfold,
And waiting for the stories untold
That are concealed,
To be revealed,
As age wears the body old.

I cannot seem to shake the feeling,
We’ve got potential beyond the ceiling,
I’m in a trance,
Give me the chance,
Say those words that begin my healing.

Anticipation, lasting hope,
Stringing along, weaving rope,
Keeps me awake,
For goodness sake,
I don’t know how I manage to cope.

With the intensity of the sun,
And the accuracy of a gun,
I’m taking aim,
Releasing the flame,
This feeling, to me, says you are the one.
