Patience


I can never seem to wait

I always rush into things

I wish I'd give more time

I hope I can learn to abide

 

My emotions lust to hurry

for the ones I think I love

But how can I be certain

when I have made so many errors

 

Please don’t force upon me

I cannot bear the pain

that always seems to follow

Maybe this time will be different

 

 

But that’s what I always say
