I sit here almost sleeping,
Waiting
Wishing for some inspiration
I can picture a million stories in this hall
of magic
of terror
none of which I find myself writing
I sit here almost sleeping,
Waiting
going through the many plots
and characters that remain trapped in my mind
the forgotten
the boring
never to taste the sweet page
I sit here almost sleeping,
Waiting
Until I realize that while I was sitting here almost sleeping
While I was waiting
I wrote this.
