-wait-

I am a word within your time of fate
Some hate when I am around
But yet I am silent and make no sound
Each time you blink your eyes
Time with me just passes by
I am the feeling of those who have waited 
With memories that vividly faded
I am not seen but because of me some scream
I am a small five letter word
People do not see me but yet I can be heard
In peoples actions I am seen 
When they stand there just waiting
So what am I too you in your life?
Am I just a word of like or of hate and strife?
