Sitting
Waiting
Knees shaking
Your heart is racing
Your mind the same
The time ticks by
S l o w l y…

S l o w l y…


S l o w l
y…
As if not even moving
Waiting anxiously
You feel as if
You could
Pull out your hair
T i c k…

T i c k…


T i c k…
Goes the second hand
Waiting…

Waiting…


Waiting…
The longer you wait
The more the anxiety grows
T i c k…

T i c k…


T i c k…
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrinnnnnnngggggggg!!!
Finally!
Time to go home.
