I used to spend hours waiting,
Waiting for the other kids to finally talk to me, just like my mom said they would.
I used to spend days waiting,
Waiting for someone to play with at recess, mom said they'd come around eventually.
I used to spend weeks waiting,
Waiting for the other kids to stop calling me names, to just leave me alone. Mom said they will someday.
I used to spend months waiting,
Waiting to feel like I finally fit in somewhere, mom says I'll find my people someday.
I have spent years waiting.
Waiting to find my place, to find people who I truly fit with.
I think I'll be waiting for the rest of my life, I think my mom is wrong.
