The Sign

all your life
you sit and wait
until you see
the sign

that moment
when you know
the stars have
aligned and

the time is
finally right and
your hopes and dreams
will now come true

then you start
to do what you
were born to do
better than anyone else

and you realize
waiting for the sign
was a waste of
your time

the minute to
capture your dreams
was when you
woke up

not when some
mythical ship
finally came in
