I waited

I waited on the wind
That it may send a word
And carry your voice
Which seldom is heard 

I waited on the sun
That it may find a way
To align our paths
If for only a day 

I waited on the rain
That it may nourish
And give rise to
A time where we'd flourish 

I waited on the night
That it may provide rest
To the myriad of thoughts
That do patience test

I waited and waited
For that one sacred time
Only to find waiting
Left me behind.
