Sonnet 28: So Long Do We Wait

By Matthew Paul Olmos

So long do we wait for life to find us
Tripping along by day
Stumbling over what we want just,
always afraid to to give take

So fast do we let time push past
Fooling ourselves by the hour
That the days will forever last
secretly know now is the only hour

And so instant can we change all of this
Just look what we want and do nothing but
Everything else is worth just above piss
Chase what we love an the rest just cut

I want to live ocean to ocean, and customs to customs,
So tomorrow I should quit every act and will that I never really in trusted
