A Long Wait

We come

To be

What we

Ought

Not to be

Making choices

What ought

And some that

Ought

Not to be

Where hope,

In peril’s

Ebbs and peaks

In whispers

To us

Often speaks

For us

To make

An effort sincere

Just one more time

Before

Those arms

Go up in despair

And wait

For that day

That upon everyday

Has 

Weighed so long

Where penchant

For the love

We have

In our memory

That always

Was supreme

And

Through fractured crevices

Of

An unfulfilled dream

One day we hope

Will

Gently stream

Into the

Desolate niches

That

Solitudes impart

To caress

The cheeks

Of a sorrowed Heart
