impatience

By StaryEyed1

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

how much longer can my patience last? you've taken so long with your answer that i seem to have forgotten the question. i don't know why i keep waiting. wishing for some change in affection doesn't seem to be working. maybe you just don't understand what it is im trying to do here. this is my last stand, here's your last chance, this is my last warning before i turn myself away from all thats comfortable. to you i look, a last chance for a desire i've held on to for so long. could i ever look at you again without wishing for some tender kiss? is it possible? i seem not to know my own limits anymore. can't remember the last time i trusted something you've said. can't remember the last time i've wished this much for words to be true. the stars seem to tell me that my wait has been paid in full, but my instincts say wait until its at my grasp. perhaps i shall have to let you go after all, but my poor self couldnt bear it.
