The waiting game continues!

 It's a feeling that I can't describe,

It's an emotion that I can't stop feeling,

It gets tougher and tougher,

It gets harder and harder,

Through it all,

A turmoil of thoughts,

A fine mess of positivity,

Mixed with tons of heartbreaks,

Some day, I hope it happens,

Some day I want it to work out,

Well, I can't tell you how I feel,

All I know is that,

I'm ready to wait,

Everyday...again and again,

The waiting game continues!


It's a feeling I can best describe through my poems,

I've seen coming all along,

I've wanted it ever since I've known of it,

It gets tougher and tougher,

It gets harder and harder,

Through it all,

I've manifested this energy,

I've prayed for the energy,

Some day, I see the light at the end of the tunnel,

Some day, I hope that it still exists,

I know how I'll feel if I get it,

I know how I've craved for it to happen,

You know the level of pride in my heart,

You know the level of shine and glow on my face,

Some day all my dreams will come true,

Some day I know it will work out,

But just until then,

I'm ready to wait,

Everyday...again and again,

The waiting game continues!


Hey there you human,

It's a beautiful journey,

It's the one you will definitely be proud of some day,

It's the one you would want to share,

It's the one you won't shy away from discussing,

Lots of ups and downs,

A fine mix of opinions and comments,

Upwards and uplifting,

Some of them just bringing you down,

But just until then,

I'm ready to wait,

Everyday...again and again,

The waiting game continues!
