He waited in confusion,
Lost in his own thoughts.
The details were blurry,
The damn math was all wrong.
He waited in confusion,
Perplexed at his ignorance.
He knew not, for what he waited.
He tried not to remember.
The children played and shouted outside.
He marveled at their nonchalance.
He wished he were as free,
He wished he didn’t have to wait.
Though he continued to wait,
For something, or someone.
Was it a loss of memory,
Or did he not know at all?
He waited in confusion,
The truth must be out there.
It had to be found.
Or else he’d drive himself crazy.
The anxiety was real,
But he couldn’t fathom a reason.
He pondered for long, very long.
But the answer still eluded him.
He waited in confusion,
Wishing this was just a dream.
But he knew it wasn’t, and that this wouldn’t end.
He knew that the wait, was to be perpetual.
