Waiting

Waiting,

For the end of long nights,

Promise of dawn uncoming,

Prayers for answered wishes,

A peek into the eyes of Fate

Waiting,

For the sharp snips of secateurs upon nets,

As the music of breaking locks,

Quick shove from sleepless dreams,

Hurried exodus, passover song

Waiting,

For clearing clouds into blue skies,

The scent of fresh flowers and glowing greens,

The warm clasp of friendly flesh,

Voices different than incessant self-whispers

Waiting,

For the end of long nights,

Promise of dawn uncoming,

Prayers for answered wishes,

A peek into the eyes of Hope
