Waiting

Waiting, waiting anticipating....

Waiting for money, funny there is never enough,
Waiting for people to change, strange they never do,
Waiting to forgive, live for tomorrow,
Waiting for peace of mind, blind we seem to be,
Waiting to forget our hating, waiting for peace,
Waiting for love, above all else,
Time wasting, tasting our heart’s desires,
Patience is a virtue, true, 
If it doesn't take too long, wrong?

Waiting, waiting, anticipating.......
