Still Here Waiting

I told you to take your time.
Gave you your space.
Asking only
to hear your voice
now and again.

Waited all night
thinking of you.
The next day too,
was clouded by you.

After a virtual eternity,
you finally reappear.
I go to embrace you
and grab nothing but air.

Stunned, i attempt again
to fall into your arms.
And again,
land on my face.

I pick myself up,
to chase after you.
But you are already gone.
and i watch you leave.

And tend to the business
of waiting for you...
