Patiently
Oh my heart, waiting so patiently.
Waiting for the days, hours, minutes
to go tumbling by.
Now within reach, so anxiously
my heart beats,
only a few more seconds.
Well, maybe just a few minutes.
What's a few more minutes
after 30,240?
What's another hour?
Another day or two?
An eternity, that's what.
So patiently
my heart waited.
And I wonder, Why?
moment is eternal.
I wasted more of my life than I'll admit here waiting for someone to realize my worth. My husband of 24 years. MMmmm, seems like I only found relief when I MYSELF realized that I was worth far more than he ever knew. Still, it's a real bitter pill to swallow when I look back and see how much time is gone and will never be retrieved. This was a good poem. Really good.
