We are the Waiting
What are we waiting for?
Validation from a peer for saying something exceptional
A monotonous job to give you an inkling of joy
A flower to bloom
College
The day you figure out what to do with your life
That person to call you back
Your favorite artist to go on tour
To go back to school
Peace
For a terrible year to end
Going home to spend time with your loved ones
To see your dog one last time
We are a society waiting for some remarkable absolution that will never
Come
We are a society of waiters
We care for others wholeheartedly all the while waiting for the same treatment in return
We are the Waiting
