Waiting...

The following is a poem that I wrote while stuck in a broken jet at the gate at OC's John Wayne Airport... (last Thursday, 12/28/06) kind of like a song, except I have no tune in my head for it...

"Waiting"
by Neil Mullins

I'm stuck here on this airliner
On the tarmac
You'd think a bird that is able to fly
Could get off the ground

I'm stuck here in life, too
Though I never thought I'd get this far
But now there's decisions to make
Life changes aren't that hard

So I'm waiting (for what?)
I'm waiting to jump
Yes, I'm waiting (for what?)
I'm waiting for God to move me

Like a pawn on a chess board
I take life one step at a time
It's not like the army's "hurry up and wait"
So much as it is being you in line

So I'm waiting...
