Waiting

How long is too long when the journey seem endless
When the odds are not in my favor, but I keep falling victim to time
Patience and grace will test your ability to call a truce
Is there an end to my waiting or is it a callous to my compromise?
Staying seem pointless, I ask myself can humanity triumph over pain?
I get absorbed with the misfortune of waiting it seems like a waste
Time waits for no one and we can never regain what’s lost
Resisting the fate of loosing is weaving its destructive path
I’m haunted by smiles on your face and the frowns in mine
The truth lies within, so I must make a choice
When I find my way back from this time wart, I will find my way back home

Nice style and choice of words...

I like that part most.

Patience and grace will test your ability to call a truce
Is there an end to my waiting or is it a callous to my compromise?

Thank you,

I wrote this piece with thoughts of a dear friend waiting for his girlfriend to come back to him (two yrs. now). I keep asking him how long will he wait he says " as long as I have too" so I'm thinking what a waste of precious time.doh
