i waited. for one day
where love would blossom
and bloom.
i waited. for him to come through
but he never did.
how could someone be
such a wave
in my hopeful eyes.
while in his,
i was yet another ripple.
we had our commutes,
but i was so scared.
fear gripped onto my back
and scarred it down until
it held my spine.
i was breaking.
but i still waited,
for things to come around.
but it never did.
he found one girl,
but left her not as broken.
and now he's with somebody else.
i support their relationship,
since it's what we should've had.
what we could've had.
but what we didn't have.
yet i still waited.
and i'll wait again because i know now,

love is patient. but when it comes,
it will make you happy
for waiting this long.
