Poetry Princess - 100 Days Of Poetry

time goes by

time goes by
and i'm sitting here
in my room in the dark
onthe floor next to my globe
and i'm dreaming.
dreaming of countries
waiting to be discovered.
those beautiful perfect places,
much better than my tiny room.

time goes by
and i'm sitting here
in my room in the light of my lamp
on a chair at my desk
and i'm studying.
spanish words
that blur in front of my eyes
never wanting to stay in my head
one hour, two hours, three hours...

and time goes by
every day's the same
studying, dreaming, studying, dreaming
while i'm waiting for something to happen
but my life doesn't want to think about changing.

time goes by
so i'm sitting here
in my room in the dark
on the floor next to my globe
and i'm writing.
writing about dreams and wishes
that never seem to be real
and i try to stay awake
in my never changing world
day by day.

and time goes by.
