Watching life go by.
As if it were a movie.
A life-time movie.
Watching everyone surrounding me.
Watching them move on.
Move forward.
Watching them get straight A’s.
Watching them make friends.
Watching them find love.
Watching them get married.
Watching them have children.
Watching them get jobs.
Watching them live life.
But here I am.
Not moving.
I’m stuck.
In quicksand.
One step forward.
Two steps back.
Maybe even three.
Wondering when my moment is going to come.
Wondering when I will make straight A’s.
Wondering when I will make friends.
Wondering when I will find love.
Get married.
Have children.
Get a job.
Live life.
Move forward.
When?
When will I move?
When will I live?
When will life go the way I want it to?
But for now, I’ll just stand.
Watching life.
Wondering…
