Wait

Wait

A wait too long
Turns days into ages
And ages into eras

Seconds that run into infinity
Birds flying towards horizon
Yet unable to reach it

A flight undertaken to reach
Where earth and sun meet
Ends with a whimper

Flights of fancy lost
When thoughts sublime
And soul sobs

A wait that stretches beyond deserts
Beyond unfathomable oceans

I am sorry baby
To let all my thoughts affect you
And now am waiting for you to come soon
So that I can hold you and feel sorry
For what people did to me
And what I passed on to you

Love you
Mummy
