waiting…..

for sleep to consume me..

for the drugs to kick in..

for the warm comfort of numbness..

for pain to drain from my pores..

for some hint of normalcy..

for a chance to grieve..

for my life to lift me up..

for rhythm..

for progress..

for the other shoe to fall..

for the end..

for hope..

for tomorrow and forever..

for love to conquer all..

for my brain to slow down..

for a chance to breathe..

for some solace..

for peace..

for her..

for always…
