I Wait

By Noelani

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A day seems a yearIs time spent away from youAs I wipe away a falling tearI know it’s because I’m missing youAnd I long to hold you near.I wait here alone with my thoughtsJumping from one to anotherI imagine you, my stomach in knotsMy handsome, significant other.It’s been so longSince you’ have been back homeIn my heart, is where you belongA love so sweet, my love syndrome.I wait for your gentle embraceTo pull me closer yetUntil I can feel your heart raceBeating with a desire never before met.You promised you’d be back soonTelling me to waitI remember this, on the night of a full moonYou said you loved me, it was our destiny, our fate.So why do I stand here aloneAnticipating a day, never to soon comeA time I so unwillingly post-poneBut know my love will never succumb.I ache for us to once again meetBecause I miss you so dearlyThough I solemnly accept my defeatI just want to say merelyI love you, my sweet.
