The Waiting

Waiting,
Waiting,
Waiting,
The troublesome thing about life is the waiting.

Because while we desire things to happen in the moment and second we want,
We seldom come to find out life's response is nothing short of blunt.
The time we spend dreaming is basically the time spent convincing.
Convincing that what we want we'll get 
What we need we'll receive.
But the waiting... 
Leaves the mind debating....
Rather or not the waiting ....
Is worth the wait.

If anything I've learned we find ourselves in the waiting...
