i am so tired
of wishing
for others
to change
i am so tired
of waiting
for others
to change
i have so much love to give
and i have so much faith
in people
but i am so tired of
giving and hoping and loving
people who
will never
change
i have grown
i am growing
but the sun
does not shine
on those who
are not
willing
to grow
i am changing and growing
and maybe i'll finally
decide that
you're not worth it
and maybe i'll finally
come to terms with the fact
that you will never
have the courage
to step into
the sun
i am so tired
of wishing
for others
to change
i am so tired
of watching
them stay
in the shade
some day
i will stop
watching
and i will
simply
continue
to grow
some day
i will
simply
grow.
