The Meantime: n. the moment of realization that your quintessential future self isn't ever going to show up, which forces the role to fall upon the understudy, the gawky kid for whom nothing is easy, who spent years mouthing their lines in the wings before being shoved into the glare of your life, which is already well into its second act. (via The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows)
An ongoing collection of poetry from what I feel is a pivotal moment of my life. A lot of these are inspired by music.

Unfinished Glances: A Love That Never Began - Part 2
She was just another student preparing for her board exams, and he was the quiet observer in the library-watching her, admiring her, but never daring to speak. Before he could gather the courage to talk to her, she was gone. Their story never even had a beginning. Years later, fate brought them together again, but not as two strangers in a library. Now, she's a cadet, and he's an officer-strict, distant, and bound by duty. The rules demand discipline, not emotions. He's no longer just a boy who once watched her; he's the man who must now push her beyond her limits. But what happens when silent care turns into something deeper? When unspoken words demand to be heard? With only a week left before she leaves again, will they let this unfinished story fade into nothing... or will fate finally give them a chance? Are you ready to find out what happened next?Complete
