Waiting

They say good things happen to those who wait,
           I've been waiting nineteen years,
                                two months,
                                        and fourteen days.
So far,
    Not so good.
Small tragedies set up a stage for a horror film.
            Perfectly lined up.
                        Foreshadowing the inevitable. 

Good things happen to those who wait.
                                 Yeah,
                                      Right.

  Some may argue that my life is just now beginning.
          That I have to run for my dreams.
Good things happen to those who wait,
            But from where I stand
                  From this tragedy,
                           There is no escape. 
  My shoes are glued to the floor,
                  And shards of glass surround my feet.

Good things happen to those who wait.
                 I have no choice but to wait.
                                         I'm waiting.
                                                 Have been waiting,
                                        And will continue waiting.

For nothing.
