Waiting – With Expectation! Poem by Angelina Pandian

Expecting you I waited
Waiting, I sighed, sat
Stood, paced about
The body in as much turmoil
As the heart within!
Waiting I listened
To hear your voice
Waiting I searched
Looking among faces
All strange to me!
Waiting I hoped
To see your face
Before the day was done,
But, the sun sinks low
Without hearing your voice
Without seeing your face!
I fall on my bed
With no sleep in my eye
Waiting for sleep – That
You might embrace me
- In a dream!
