The clock ticks.
Tick, tack, tick tack.
Time passes, nothing happens.

You keep watching the horizon, at the top of that hill, seeing the sunrise, the sunset, the burds fly off, watching that painter with that canvas that just keep ignoring you, over and over.


Some that found you interesting, gone. The bird, flies away, the cat, runs, the dragon, hides.
Always the same story, is way too easy to give up than to try, is easier to run, than to take someone with you with your hand.
Easier to leave the weak behind, even if the only thing they needed was some smal continuous push.

To go to that restaurant; where there is one quiet gentleman in a corner, well dressed, and a guy with ugly clothes on the other corner, with some friends. Approaching the gentleman would require you to meet that person, and invest some time on it. 
Approaching the weird guy with the friends would give quick results, no need to know if they're good or not, just like that.

So with one, you need time, but can give amazing results. With other, you don't need time, but may as well be a ver bad choice. Ppl are into easier things, is not hard to know what will be the choice.

Sort of wandering through a wonderful forest, searching for gems around, that maybe you can stumble upon that cave where the dragon lies with it's reward, a lone dragon, with huge value. But why bother? There's a cave at the other side where another dragon lies in, this dragon, unlike the lonely one, has friends and love around, is happy on it's own.
Few care for the poor lone dragon, but those that do, have a wonderful time.

Going back to the hill, hear of some that prefer to stay alone all their life, of others that don't want to be alone all their life, but noone wants them, and others that got all the attention that ever could be asked.

Just contemplate, all those that happens, everything you see, hear, because is not like something will happen to you soon, just see time fly by, losing hope, but only enjoying the view.

You don't expect someone to climb up the hill, give you a hand, and stay by your side, even if there is more safe and calm, you the same don't expect to go down, to the dangers, rather look at the horizon, to see if you can spot that sparkle, and hope it notices you too. Then maybe move from the hill, to another hill, near that wonder.

But that won't happen, those that are sparkles would rather go to dangers, than to look to the hill.

Tick tack, tick tack, see the sunrise, nothing happens. Rinse, repeat.
Noone will come.
