Waiting For You Poem by james d nall,jr

All these years. I've waited for you
Hoping and praying, you wanted me, too
Watching your beauty fade as time passes
The figure you'd had, equaled any lasses
Now, gravity has taken its dreaded toll
While around your waist, theres new folds
Wrinkles covering, your once smooth skin
Where once there was one, now, two chins
The spritely step, you used to possess
Now, full of pain, as times progressed
Today I saw you on the street
Looking like you needed to take a seat
Having again, a long, good look at you
I decided, I've been better off, alone, too
