Still Part 1

Knock…Knock…
I'm at the crossroads,
Crossroads of a fast-paced world.
Moving shadows and advanced paces,
Where everyone is moving fast and I'm left on a standstill… watching… waiting… thinking… breathing, repeat.
The weight,
Wanting to help nevertheless, handcuffed by limitations,
A tightened noose around my neck,
The anxiety of waiting in the uncertainty.
“What next”,
The bullet shot to my chest, leaving me bare, defenceless as I try to look for a way out of this cycle… waiting.
I look up to the clouds as they pass by,
A sigh of surrender.
I hope this sentence can pass too.
The race is not be swift,
But why do I feel this way,
I've got the degrees, yet my mind is at its lowest to agree,
A denial to accept that I may be left here waiting.
I look up to the hill,
From Abba, my help shall come
Looking here, I fear I may get lost in this pace.
