Impatience

Impatient I am
I have always been
Gnawing and gnashing
With my fiery teeth

I want it yesterday
Not today
Why wait for tomorrow
I want it my way

Fret, fuss and worry
I do things in a hurry
For time is short
I quickly get distraught

Like a headless chicken I sometimes run around
Lose my footing and cannot ground

Patience is a virtue which I do not possess
Yet impatience in its strongest puts one to a test

To become patient I must succeed
In waiting for Order to
Feed Chaos her needs

So I tap my feet restlessy for December to come
Biting my lips with an endless hum

My patient Order with a smile on his face
Loves my impatience and does not want me to change

So with my nature of wanting to win
I have been shown how
To calm it by my patient Twin

Patience is calming with a soft gentle glow
Impatience is fiery and always shows

Both are needed at different times
Together they create a perfect mind

In this case there is no wrong and right
For together we stand
And together we fight

Well Tboy.....when we try to look through other peoples eyes, sometimes our 'bad' sides isn't so 'bad' after all.....being honest to ourselves is harder than it seems? wave
