So long

Анна Ринифе
I’ve been waiting so long,
I’ve been waiting so hard,
I’ve been waiting with all my strength,
Watching life passing by,
Feeling time running out,
Hearing echoing steps of death.
I’ve been waiting so long,
I can’t wait any more,
Can no longer go on in this way.
I don’t want to stay numb,
I’m so tired of being scared,
My forever starts today.
I’ve been freezing my heart
Not to drown in all pain,
But the pain comes up breaking the ice –
These sharp pieces of mine,
The remains of the dream
Scattered to junk pearls of the lies.
I’ve been waiting so long,
I forgot how to let
Feelings take my breath away.
Though I crumble inside,
Though the void burns me down
My forever starts today.
