Waiting

antra.coree

Waiting is always considered

the greatest proof of love.

 

But why does no one dare to talk about

the feeling of

worthlessness,

emptiness,

self-doubt,

overthinking,

fear,

ache,

tears?

 

Why is waiting always considered pure?

If someone left,

it was their choice

not to choose you.

 

Waiting...

It's not always worth it.

 

What's the point of waiting

when you lose yourself in the wait?

What's the point of waiting

when finally getting it

no longer feels like joy?

What's the point of waiting

when you have to teach yourself

to be kind to yourself?

What's the point of waiting

when most of your life

is spent waiting?

 

What's the point of waiting

for the next train

when this one

could have taken you

to another life?

 

Tea grows cold

waiting for the right time.

 

Leaves fall

waiting for the right season.

 

What's the point of waiting?

When it's full of uncertainties,

When chances of good is less than things to go against your way

    This is a most interesting write I guess it depends what you are waiting for and the chances that it will come. Nicely written

      We grow old and die waiting for that perfect moment to arrive. Sacrificing the good waiting for the great. Very well said!
