As I Sit Here and Wait
As I sit here and wait
My mind slowly does churn
Memories of you around and around
The sound of your soothing voice
The smell of your infatuating scent
The touch of your smooth skin
The sight of your unmatched beauty
Time turns to stone
As I wait alone
Unrighteous anger makes me its home
The sound of him making you laugh
The touch of his hand in yours
The sound of his endearments to you
The touch of his lips to yours
My fists are clenched
Sweat crosses my brow
I fight the anger away
It makes me sunken and hollow
It tells me I will never have a chance with you
It creates my depression
It foretells my unhappiness
But I fight my anger away
The anger banished
I sit and wait
Now only a test of my patience remains
As I sit here and wait
Our lives go on
I await the time when they'll combine
