I Wait…

Waiting

To wait means patience, and I’m not good at it.

To wait means delay, and I don’t need that as of the moment.

To wait means to submit, and I’m too proud to do that.

But if to wait would let you see how much you mean to me,

Then I will be still until you are here.

I will tolerate delay until you can hold me in your arms.

I will be humble enough to admit that I need you.

And so I wait…
