Wait

As I silently wait,

I need not tell the world

how it pains to not know

the bliss in your tears.

I need not tell the world

how frequently I implore you

to rid the ego that is

encumbered by fears.

Like a lost girl in a dark forest,

I hanker for that crack of dawn.

A little peep

of sun’s first ray

while impatience persuades me,

to pander to its delicate self.

But I remain faithful-

to wait.
