Waiting?
So here I am
I´m still waiting
So here I am
I´m still breathing
So here I am
I´m still holding
the key you lost some years ago
Where are you?
I have been looking for you for so long..
Are you even here?
Or are these words just a lie in my head?
Sometimes I wonder
You know
Why do I still bother to try?
Why do I care so much?
Should have let it go.
Long time ago.
I guess there´s no space for new
when you clutch to the old
I witness my life
just passing by
without a second look
It´s so weird to be
holding out hope still
like I´m thirteen years old
But prince charming
is nowhere to be found
No love
Neither glorious
No ordinary
Nothing
Just leaves falling down
one by one
for each year of emptiness
you left
So here I am
Unpextected crossroad
in front of me
Do I give up?
Do I hold on?
That remains to be seen.
Or not..

There is a story told on how to catch monkeys...you put a small desirable nut into a tied container with a hole just big enough to admit an open hand, but once closed upon the nut the fist cannot be withdrawn. If the monkey would surrender the nut he could simply walk away..but he won't...
he imprisons himself...
