Analysis of White
Michael Cahill 1980 (Bell island)
(WHITE)⚪️
Waiting has it's time extended
The worse you can do is know when it is,
Knowing the end before it begins.
Because when you know ,
waiting grows slow.
There's a positive side to waiting tho,
it's brighter when you see it glow.
Cause there's opportunities in waiting,
If you Just give it a go.
So if you think your feeling white ,
Then just take your time and look for the brighter white.
