Waiting

Everything happens for a reason.
Everything happens in its time.
But how long should I wait
Before life showers me my dues?
Is there such a thing as dreams coming true?
Or perhaps it’s a wishful thinking
To prevent us from sinking
Into the depths of despair.

How long should I wait?
How long will it take?
What more should I do?
To skip to the front of the queue?
To meet the love of my life
And spend all of eternity in his embrace.

Maybe it’s just a fantasy,
A mere figment of someone’s imagination.
Perhaps it’s a conspiracy to file hope
And keep us from falling.
Still,it doesn’t reduce the mindless waiting.
