Waiting

I wait for the world to end.
I wait because I know it'll happen,
I wait because I fear losing,
I wait because I do.

My world is everything Wanted,
The hopes and dreams I hold.
A beautiful sight,
when what you have crumbles.

prove me right,
prove that I am a Tragic comedy,
prove that my prophicy is set,
unlike Odysseus and Cassandra,
I will not defy.

because when my fate becomes true,
I will have known it whole,
and maybe thats fearfull living,
But what else?

    About the days that haunted her,

    And those that would come soon.

    She wanted to apologize,

    For wishing on the stars,
