Sorry For the Wait
Written on August 14, 2017 10:16 PM
In the echoes of time, your words reverberate,
'Later, I'll reply,' you say, in a deliberate state.
'I'll read it later,' your commitment in the air,
Amongst my heartfelt lines, you handle with care.
A list I've compiled, each 'later' well-defined,
A thousand messages, a tale that's intertwined
'Unread confessions,' the title it might claim,
Of love professed, a digital love's sweet game.
A thousand times you vowed, 'I'll reply without fail,'
'I'll read it later,' your promise set like a sail.
Yet I hold on, steadfast in my belief,
That someday you'll respond;
In the dance of time, where 'later' meets 'now,'
I hope to hear you say, with love's eternal vow,
'I've replied, my love,'
'Sorry for the wait,'
