We Wait

Poetry

Wait and wait

We wait and wait

Hoping for that perfect someday

That’s somewhere off far away
–

We wait and wait

Hoping that our waiting satiates our pain

Hoping that our patience eradicates our hope for gain

Hoping our sacrifice creates something beautiful but not vain
–

Waiting is what we do

Waiting is what we live for

We wait and wait

Putting off the good

Till we’re old and can barely move
–

We wait until our bones are dry

We wait until it’s too late to cry

We wait until our soul has died

We wait until we envy the babies that are made tonight
–

We wait until we are no more

We wait until there is no desire and nothing in store

We wait until it’s too late

And this… is our one… true mistake
–

Stop Waiting.
