When the birds stop chirping
The clouds roll in

And the air
So thick with longing
Yet so thin you can barely breathe

The sky isn't blue
The grass isn't green

Just waiting for the sun to shine
Knowing it won't rise in the morning

Nothing has any colour
Any joy
Any hope

Sometimes
I have to ask
Is this a nightmare?
Am I still alive?
How can I be alive
If life is nothing but waiting
For something that will never be
