WAITING, by                    
First Line: Waiting is such a task / well do I know it
Last Line: At least I won't mind it.
Subject(s): Hate; Waiting


Waiting is such a task,
Well do I know it,
Although I strive so hard,
Try not to show it.

Tired of this long delay,
Tired of bemoaning,
Tired of the need to be
Always postponing.

Every day have to spend
Hours in waiting,
Every day get to be
Quicker at hating.

Long for a stopping place,
Where will I find it?
Waiting will be no more,
At least I won't mind it.
