Waiting

Time clicks on, as I wait 
 The hours pass, before my take 
 Daylight ends and night descends 
 Finds me, sitting, thinking, pacing, waiting. 
 The night grows old 
 So does my soul 
 Yet still 
 I wait 
 Watching, staring, seeing, nothing. 
 Night cries, silenced 
 Another day begins 
 When will all this anticipation end? 
 The sun moves on 
 Another day, gone 
 Leaving me, still 
 Wondering, wishing, hoping, 
 for something.

Thanks again Daniel.....I still think I need to work on writing different types of poetry, I'm use to just free styling.
