Two minutes, that’s an eternity!
My hands quiver at the steering wheel
While stopped at a red traffic light
Raring to fly in my automobile…
Wanting to leave the present behind
And the past that's been cruel and unreal!
But I know a bright future beckons
Waiting for me to unravel and reveal!

In most traffic intersections, two minutes is the length of time that the red light stays on. However, most people are so impatient; for them, the interval seems a lot longer. For some, an eternity. Two minutes is FOREVER.

over 4 yearsI like this one, and I believe and agree that the future will be bright.
