"i'm waiting"

i’m waiting…

i’m waiting
here in the trees
amongst the fallen leaves
softly wrapped in this breeze

i’m waiting
heart on my sleeve
hands folded in anticipation
mouth unyielding to all temptation

i’m waiting
for you
always for you
never quite knowing what to do

i’m waiting
eyes softly closed
ears ready to catch
soles ready to dispatch

i’m waiting
sensing how you feel
praying you shall see
undoubting in all that will be

i’m waiting
mind on silent
lungs drown in patience
skin smoldering in latent fragrance

i’m waiting
never moving
never ceasing
eternally seeking

i’m waiting
knees bowed
head cast down
blood gently streaming ‘round

i’m waiting
always i’ll be here
waiting for the day
you decide to stay

i’m waiting
soul on fire
bones of ore
muscles at ease to their core

i’m waiting
find me you will
acceptance you'll eagerly embrace
together, at last, we shall dwell inside this space

i’m waiting...
