Stumbling down the hectic path of life

with no obligations or ambitions in mind

Confusion constantly surrounding me

Remarkable world of hatred and insanity

My designated portion of space

Some may call it ‘home’

Doesn’t impress me,

It’s a place I want to escape from

Waiting for the moment

When I will sparkle and shine

Waiting for that moment

Patiently waiting for my time

Watching the sun burn

like the cigarette in my hand

Waiting for that chance, my turn

to make people understand

Propelling myself to the limit

I am pressed to go further

Fragility over powers me

Looking for some kind of cure

I’m waiting for that moment

Which will be my time to shine

My moment of happiness

That is rightfully mine

Watching the sun set in the sky

Wishing I could be up that high

Away from my life, away from me

And this remarkable feeling of hatred and insanity

About the Author

Writing has been my passion since the age of 7… my inspiration to keep going with my writing has always come from my mother. Even though she passed away when I was 18, it is now driven by her memory.

 My name is Amanda Hoppes born and raised in Waterloo, Iowa. My writing is my every step, every move, every breath I take; It’s my vibrant smile, my saddest frown, my every single mistake; It’s my heart on fire, my soul so deep, my mind always free; It’s my life line, my past, present and future, my writing is ME.
