Hurry Up And Wait

Just musing on screen....

All my life I've been told
the same old thing....
"Good things come
to those who wait."
And so I have waited
and waited
and waited
for the goodness
to come pouring in.
I've waited
for life to make sense.
I've waited,
but never felt so tense.
I've waited
for love, for romance,
I've waited for "him".
I've waited,
my feet out on a limb.
Everything I've tried
and everything I've given
and still...
when my head hits the pillow,
I hear them whispering
again and again,
"Hurry up and wait."
So, this is me....
waiting for you.

Thea, you write with such longing and emotion in your words. As I read your words I forget for a moment that it is not I who has written them but you, for they touch the heart.
Love it.
