The Wait

The Wait

I will wait, my lover

I will wait even when all I can see are your footprints and not your feet

I will wait even when I have nothing but the fragrance of your black orchid

I will wait, not because there are no options

But because patience gives me more strength to love you more

Love your hazel eyes

Love your strength

Love your weakness

Love every single flaw the world will never understand…

Love immensely, the buttons, they keep it all together

Love every reason for your existence

I will wait

Yes baby

I will wait by your book

Reading every single word you wrote that meant something….

…something through the lens
