Waiting For Something To Happen Poem by Gerry Legister

Waiting For Something To Happen



I have waited before and nothing happened,
This time I am expecting something to happen,
The occurrence may take longer than planned,
Dreams were born in appearance that will begin.

Every part of me left hanging upside down,
Cursing the veil event which had torn apart,
The bliss life known, planned and waiting,
But love says it should have broken my heart.

Bury my head and flush the feelings all away,
Instead, I can start mounting another challenge,
Choosing time and place being suited in array,
Escape that world and be taken by a carriage.

It could be the angelic flight of love from above,
With contented joy embrace the tighten alter grip,
And all the leftovers of my body solemnly move,
Sentiments fashion every thought and tentative step.

I waited for love to paint over the part of my life,
Remove the gloomy birth from all disappointment,
That brought the indolent moods to sense its peak,
And commune with patience the waiting moment.

This could be the dream I have been waiting for,
Anticipating something beautiful in life to happen,
And my passive resistance which stood unsure,
Held a door open until the dream prefer comes in.
