Waiting

Sitting in an empty room,
The light's still not shining through
The window closed and curtained
I pull the curtain back to glance outside
To see a sky blanketed in clouds
Far off in the distance
A single ray of sunshine
Brightening their smiling faces
I stare in envy
Wishing for the warmth of the sun
To fall on my waiting face
But all I have is rain
To be my company in this quiet room
An empty room
Still so empty
Closed off from the world
All that's left is waiting.
