and so he waited...

and so he waited...

A Poem by Huw

There was a time

a long time during which

he knew that he wasn’t

where he was supposed to be.

A time when he would have

given anything to be someone 

else while being somewhere else.

He also knew he had no strength

or even the inclination to change.

Stuck in the proverbial rut 

too proud to seek help

too stupid to admit 

that anyone 

could understand

and so he waited…

you`re welcome
I can relate to this one big time Huw. How we feel we are stuck in a rut at times in our life. But sadly too lazy or become relaxed and apathetic with our situation we just accept it. Think oh well. Just accept it for what it's now. instead of taking the bull by the horns and getting motivated in a new direction.

I've been commenting on someone's drawings for a couple of months and she asked if I was a published poet. It made me laugh because I'd left school at 13 years old and never completed formal education.. more..
