Waiting

Sometimes I'm sat in wait
Not for anything
Nor winds of change
Nor hand of fate

Just as is

It's hard to always torture myself
With the endless seconds of bated breath
In the hopes of...well

Nothing yet

An ocean of silence, seemingly comfortable to you
All the while my emotions gnaw
Breaking free
To throw themselves at you

I'm cut with a reality as sharp as a sterling blade
That your love for me will
Eventually fade

So swallowing my pride
From a bitter spoon
I muster a smile
As wide as the moon

And sit in wait
For the inevitably soon
The long awaited departure
Of a sought after heart
