THE WAIT

She loves him, oh him that she adores,
More than anyone she has ever cared before,
Even if the odds are at stake,
For he has another love that awaits.

Blinded with love she didn't care,
There was hope, she believed in them,
Never did she realize, there were no promises made,
No assurance of a future up ahead.

"Wait, just wait," she was told many times,
"Have more patience, my sweetie,"
Oh and she believed him many times,
For she loves him so tenderly.

He declared his love and hers to him,
The longingness was unbearable,
The loneliness indescribable.

But wait, until when is the waiting be?
He said to wait and be patient she should be,
But looks like there's no timeline in sight,
Does he know she also have the right...(to know?)

Another day, another weeks and another has passed,
No words, no calls...nothing,
Then lo and behold,
The answers to his deafening silence.

She saw pictures of her beloved one,
Building a new life with the other love,
How awful the feeling was!
The pain, the heartache was too much to bear!

Wanted to scream, wanted to cry,
But there's nothing else she could do,
Reality sets in, she's by herself...alone,
What a fool, she muttered to herself.

Rise up, pick yourself up!
Be proud of who you are,
And what you're capable of,
For despite the waiting,
The wait was in vain.

Wait no more
It's all over
"Goodbye my love," she says,
There is no reason.

For hope dies
As her love slowly fades away
Only memories stay,
But those too shall go astray.
