on wait

we wait. we all wait, whether we want or not. whether we are aware of it or not, because we all hope, because we all dream with the impossible. our unconscious mind keeps asking "what if?", and our mind's eye keeps seeking in vain. until one day, one fateful day, we realise we're no longer waiting. no longer expecting. no longer hoping. and when that day comes, we will notice that the emptiness that had overtaken us is falling back, that the wounds that bled for so long are starting to heal.

in that day, we live again. we will live again.
