Waiting

I’m waiting for the sun to burst

I’m waiting for the line to end

I’m waiting for the train

 

I’m waiting for her

For love

For she

 

I’m waiting for togetherness

Peace & Beauty

I’m waiting for the song to end

For my pain to halt

 

I’m waiting for art to show

On gallery walls

 

I’m waiting for the hunted

I’m waiting for my prey

 

I’m waiting for the food to cook

I’m waiting to bury my father with a puzzle

 

I’m waiting to kneel down in front

Holding hands

 

I’m waiting to caress her skin

To hold her hand

And lay upon her chest

 

I’m waiting for the sign

To Walk or Don’t Walk

I’m waiting for the rain

To pour and wash my tears away

 

I’m waiting to help the helpless

The sick, the dying, the dead

 

I’m waiting for the year

I’m waiting very long

 

I’m waiting for the optimization

I’m waiting for the tour

I’m waiting for the day

And for the tap

 

I’m waiting for the dream

And the memory

The shared time

And the first dinner

 

I’m waiting for the night

And the scent

 

I’m waiting for the sight

And the touch

 

I’m waiting forever

Until realism is defined

Until moments are defined

Until I am pinned

Into my corner of make-believe

And truth.
