Waiting...

by Kyle   Jun 6, 2014


As I wait for your sweet embrace, the sun rises high in the sky and falls beyond the horizon.
Seconds turn to minutes, minutes turn to hours, and hours turn to days, as I wait.
As I wait to see you smile, days turn to nights and nights turn to days, yet I wait.

While I wait, I twiddle my thumbs and watch the clock..
Life without you is dull and comprised of a constant feeling of anticipation.
While I wait, I try and focus on my life but all that ever comes to mind is our next kiss.
Life should be important, but you're the most important thing in my life.

To wait is to want and to want is evil.
All I want is your affection, your love, your touch, every single day.
So I wait.... and wait.....

    Now my first suggestion having to do with the first paragraph would be to change the commas in "Seconds turn to minutes, minutes turn to hours... ETC." to semicolons or to add conjunctive fragments to it (E. and then minutes turn to hours). The second thing would be to add a comma after "Embrace" in the first paragraph, and to add another comment after "Important" in the next paragraph because of the conjunctions that are already inserted.

    I definitely feel I can relate to the situation described in this poem. I once spent a summer away from a girl that I truly did like after she and I spent the last summer before that together. I waited for her to come back that summer. I waited and waited to find that she would never come back. She wasn't there. I moved on eventually despite the scarring past that I suffered the year before and ended up socially contracting. That next year was awful.
