Waiting

Waiting… for an answer
waiting for a life to begin
put on hold to many times

Waiting… in a room with strangers
idle chatter relieves the tension
for a few minutes… we forget

Waiting… for a doctor or nurse
to deliver good news
reviving our hopes and dreams

Waiting… then wonder
do you know who we are
as a couple

Waiting… we’ve come to a point
where our life
just seems to be… waiting
