Impasse

How long will I be waiting? For I long to be by the side of my soul mate, I refuse to believe that everything we had is gone. When you look at my face I'm anything but withdrawn, and when I leave so much uncertainty regards our fate. Where will this road take us? It seems like we're at a impasse, like I'm getting to close and you're holding back. I said I love you the last time I saw you, you returned the reply in same but cut yourself short. Beautiful music to my ears even if it was long overdue. Something out of habit? Or did you really mean it? I wait for the day to hear those words everyday, convinced that you're heart has not decayed.
