Wait..
When the wait seems a lifetime…


Oh you wicked wait You lured me with an enticing bait
Promised for a stay as quick as a wink Alas! slower than a sloth seems your passing
Oh my dear wayward wait Now I can’t lift your weight Let’s part with an elegant gait How about closing this chapter to explore greener pasture
I do not wish to die with dreams Can you not hear my screams!!
Oh you wearisome wait! Please cease and desist Our companionship did long persist Now your existence I loathe and resist
I held you in high esteem, invested my patience and trust. But, like an unwanted guest, you are now overstaying my forbearance and tolerance.
Oh you wily wait! A quagmire of voids and lacunas you did create. Seems time has come to a standstill My endurance is falling with a gravity nill. Noticing you metamorphose into my Achilles Heel.
But, you wicked, wary, wily, wearisome trecherous wait You cannot render me inert or frozen I will sprightly surpass this friction ’m made of brass and will brazen you out in totality and spring up with double velocity.
Gosh! Writing this down has been so therapeutic. There is something at this point I am waiting for long and today the anxiety just got the better of me.
But, we are writers and know well that writing is cathartic. Took an hour’s break from my work and jotted whatever came to my mind. I did not force myself and just let the mind take hold of the pen and do all the writing.
My subconscious is cleared now. Feeling myself, the normal happy positive person I am by God’s Grace.
I am sure you might also have had some troubling thoughts at some point in life and ✍️writing them down freed you of the edginess.
