She Waited
Caring and loving for him she waited
He wondered why they never dated

I Waited
I waited on your conscience to come to your rescue
For your veins to come alive with life’s blood flow
I wait for the repair of your heart’s oil pipeline
Broken spilling crude at our relationship’s door

The Bible says “Meekly wait and murmur not” 
But I’ve waited beyond...

I Waited
I never told you how I felt,
When I had the chance;
I hid my welled up feelings,
Never gave a second glance;

I stowed away my longing thoughts,
You weren't right for me;
But all I ever wanted,
Was to let you see;

I let slip through my fingers,
My one and lingering...

I
made
a mistake
with my mother
when the doctor told me she was dying
I should have brought her home to die with me
I live with that
weep at night
because
it
haunts
my soul
I could have
it was her wish
to be honest I was just so afraid . . . 
then when I wanted...

presence, with the 
tenderness of your
love...

radiant joy, for you

of...

you alone can bring...

And in the morning

Premium Member The Gent Who Waited At the Gate
I asked him why at my house he had stopped.
He answered me, "I have some time to wait,
and here I'll stay until the sun has dropped!"

All day in summer's sun, nearby the gate,
he patiently awaited my dear sister,
and now I shall reveal to you his...

Last Night I Waited Long
Last night I waited long...
The moon will appear of the murky clouds
But it didn’t…!
And I soothed my sorrowed soul
As this… 
If tomorrow! You call me 
To the ruined almonds-garden
In the backyards of the lonely cottage!
  And angrily say:
  ‘Now it’s very late… It’s...

Premium Member I Waited Long
I waited long among the dew
of morning grass and day anew,
arising in the place we played
where hasty promises were made;
our tender hearts to each we threw.

So we could naive vows renew;
and others from our minds eschew;
among dawn's chorus, here I stayed.
I waited long.

Soft downy skin,...

I waited ‘til I saw the sun, 
The sun just slipped a note below my door                             ...

I Waited For Your Call
It was your call
 If you did call
 I would have been home
 I would have not


 Those minutes, That time
 We would have talk
 We would have walk
 Now where I am
 Now I am lost
 Lost inside your heart

 Let this heat pass...

And Rome Vainly Waited For His Return
On sunny days walk beneath the aesthetic pine trees
that gently undulate in the tepid Roman breeze,
their image is reflected in the Tiberius' flowing water;
majestic is the Colosseum, the mighty power of Rome,
it has withstood time, wars, earthquakes, and pillage...
stand in front of it and reimagine...

You Waited
"you waited"

our eyes never met for I journeyed without looking
our hearts weren't joined for that door was closed
suddenly one fine day with open eyes there you were
waiting for me to see the love of what could be

it took me long to find your eyes and...

My Rebecca, Thy Hast Waited For Me To Rescue Her
Years of loneliness; She hast lived a life of no aspiration
Everyday yearning for closure at the next station
Dreaming everyday of the hopelessness cure
My Rebecca, Thy Hast Waited For Me To Rescue Her

She reaps the suffering and lots of pain
Not finding her one true love from...

We'Ve Waited For You
Existing here, in the darkness of the sunlight.
Taking in the wicked sky, until the dark of night.
The door cracks open, there is no sun shining through.
If I can't understand me, then I can't understand you.

What I thought I've felt, what I thought I've known.
Feeling betrayed...
