An Anthem For Them

the wait

-

the loneliest wait of all
is to wait in love for love's sake
the love unrequited for love untold
for the unspoken timelessness' sake
to smell, to feel the golden strand
to glimpse, to hold perchance
for always the love sought at hand
exists in but a fleeting glance
and the morrow unsure
a fool's hope though frail endure
in the still air, unbroken and whole
i wait the loneliest wait of all.
