The
Waiting Is Over
Inside I had a silent pact,
a silent protest,
a quiet calm.
I wanted the pain and suffering to end,
before I played.
And so I waited.
I had many reasons to reject the joy.
I feared the hurt.
I was uncomfortable and blue.
I wanted to be safe.
I wanted life to get better.
I wanted my real dreams to always come true.
But life was not helping.
Things were not getting better.
And so I waited.
I waited to open.
I waited to change.
I waited for peace and for life to get better.
My plan was simple, or so I thought.
I would “will to won’t,”
and be strong as a knot.
I would sacrifice and protest,
and never bow.
Life would get better, but I did not know how.
Time went by and to my surprise,
my resistance and sacrifice made me strong,
I surmise.
But what I did not see was how I was stuck,
or how I was attached to the discomfort in life.
I did not see how this choice caused my strife.
Then one day I awakened.
I decided to see.
I looked at my truth.
I saw the beauty that persisted.
I opened to love.
I saw the light.
It was always there, even though I resisted.
The wisdom and love bubbled up from inside.
It filled my heart.
I could no longer hide.
I felt the joy.
My love overflowed.
I was happy to know there would be no more
waiting.
There was some resistance but I did not force.
I acknowledged the path and offered a choice.
I invited the yes and then respected each voice.
I honored myself.
I respected my purpose.
It was time to awaken into true love and bliss.
And so my wait ends.
Gone is my fight.
I welcome the new way of divine wisdom and
light.
