Patiently
Location
My body seems to resist my mind
I knew this journey wouldn’t be easy
Temptation awaits me at every turn
In the back of my mind I feel that
I have the strength to overcome
But in the midst of my fantasies
I feel helpless and vulnerable
I chose to wait until our fingers
Bear the universal symbol of love
Until I was sure that you’d be my
First and last
To finally satisfy your curiosity is my
Wildest dream
Finally seeing you lose yourself in me
Finally letting your spirit run
Deep within the rivers of blue
All after we say “I do”
At times I am unsure of my decision
Is this really feasible for me?
I catch myself
Is there really a man that wants
Nothing more than to see me smile
Even if we have to wait…
Someone who just longs for my touch
My warmth
My comfort
Does such a man exist?
I think back to those words
Where is your faith?
I exhale and realize that my
Father who is the air, the ocean, the land
Is watching over me, tears filling his
Eyes as he sees his child grow
This man, whoever he may be
Will not see me as a sex symbol
But rather a partner, a confidant
This man will be a gift from my
Heavenly father
This man will tattoo a smile on
My face that resembles his
This man will become apart of
Me
This man will be my husband
And I shall wait
Patiently
