Frozen in motion, we wait still
Dreaming of freedom,
In dreams we are living still
Waiting on hopes
Waiting on promises
We are here still
I yearn for a touch
Outside of this reality still
In the wake of emotions
Holding it in still
A view from the outside
Imprisoned still
Jump at the chance
Jump at your call
And still
Left half empty
I’ll settle for half full
And still
Encumbered by doubt
Was I ever living
A true life
I wonder still
If I had taken the steps
Leaped with abandon
I’d be here still
But in what condition
Would I be still
In this holding pattern
Waiting on the word
From you still
Engaged with my senses
Nothing is left that
Isn’t still
Trying to take
my mind away
From all this and failing, still
Having to face a new
Life, still
Having to hold on
Tight to this normal, still in
Looking behind to what I
Had taken for granted
And take for granted, still
