standing still

sometimes in life--you just stand still:
you dont want any movement no fun excitement no thrill:
you are just standing still waiting for time to pass:
you dont want to start any new task:
just standing still waiting for the time to pass:
you dont want to run no race you know you will finish last:
just standing still:
with so much time to kill:
just waiting for the time to pass:
hope this pain inside wont forever last:
just standing still with no place to go:
not much matters when you feel so down and devastatingly low:
just standing still and you only want to be alone:
dont even want to speak to no one in person or on the phone:
the curtains are pulled and ya just stay inside:
you feel deep within you something has died:
just dealing with your life stress doing your best to cope:
trying your best to hold onto faith --be strong and have hope:
standing silently still with little energy to thrive:
standing still for now just trying to survive:
