You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

When your waiting period is brief,

Result makes you elated.

 

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

You’re visualizing of its end,

That makes you ecstatic.

 

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

Still hopeful that something

Will turn out to be favorable.

 

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

Like the dark clouds in the sky,

Just about to bring rain.

 

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

Those dark clouds are dispelled away,

And sun rays make their way.

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

Assuring yourself that when it ends,

It will be the best part.

 

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

Sometimes questioning your faith,

And your mind surrenders to high powers.

 

You wait for something,

Never knowing when it will end,

Universe rewards you with bonus,

For waiting with patience and hope!

 

Now you look back at the journey,

And connect the dots to realize,

Waiting was just a process to test your patience,

And the journey never looked the same.

P.S: Through this poem , I've tried to portray various stages of wait and how a human mind navigates through it. Sometimes, it assures that everything will be fine when this waiting period gets over , while sometimes our self-doubts seem to get multiplied. We must remember waiting is a process designed by the Universe to test our patience and when it is over, we're able to find the missing pieces of that big puzzle called life.
